I wimped out on my last two work days last week because the temperature, wind chill, and complete lack of humidity were too much for the gear I have.

It was absolutely beautiful weather on the way in yesterday evening and this evening; it was a bit chilly, but not terrible, on the way home this morning.

I had drive train issues on the way in tonight and ended up with Teflon & Road Grime-infused chain grease all over my face and commuter yellow jersey. I was subjected to an attempted right-hook but I managed to swing out behind the driver and yell, "Trying to kill me?!" into her window as I passed her.
