It finally got warm enough to melt enough snow and ice of the bike path to ride over to my GFs yesterday. Most of that trip is the same as my trip to the office, and I knew I wasn't going to be able to make it all the way to the office without more melting, but I wanted to get out for a trial run anyway. I had a new problem (ghost shifting without the use of the front derailer), it was really windy, I got to ride by an opossum out foraging on a section of the path that was between 2 snowbanks and I got to feel some of that burn you folks that commuted all winter are going to miss experiencing. All in all a nice start to the season.
