Hi John,
I plan on riding next week for the first time in a while.
I am really looking foward to it. I agree with the other guys,
you just don't know what people will do in a parking lot.
OTOH, I have ridden that stretch of road past tweeters, and it scares me when there isn't any snow at all. The guys at Back Bay Bike have seen me at the Mall on my bike, and their opinion is that I am nuts to ride there. I pretty much agree with them. But I plan on going once in a while anyway. Sanity was never my strong suit. Let's let the weather improve a bit, and if it's still copacetic we can meet.
