bah, that's what you have a bad weather bike for. That being said, my bad weather bike needs fenders. My Schwinn is a wreck from the 20miles from yesterday. I don't care though. I just fixed it into the trainer cleaned the seat off, now I'm about to go ride it for a few hours, and watch a movie.

Spent an hour on the rollers, staring outside. Snow is all gone, sun was out, not a cloud in the sky. You have to watch out for those sunny winter days though. In reality it was 15 degrees with a brisk wind. Cruel joke by mother nature. Mean.

Owning a car is overrated. I haven't had one in nearly 5 years now. I just invest that monthly payment into bike crap instead.

We are all going to die. It's not such a big deal after you get over that.

Car ownership is a double-edged sword.

Now that's what I am talking about. I have 4 cars though, but they are all paid for. So no stupid payment.
