Well that was a fun ride today. I should have worn contacts, my glasses were fogged and covered with snow about 5 feet into the ride. Couldn't see the crack in the road and had a nice spill. Snow is nice and soft, almost like falling into a big pillow. I was more upset that I spilled my coffee though, freshly ground Ideal this morning all over the road. What a waste.

The roads were better than I expected. The snow was so wet it got compacted into a big hard wet white sheet on the road that my knobbie tires gripped the sh*t out of. Uncompacted snow was even better; tons of grip and no slipping. I almost washed out turning while pedaling through a pile of slush though. That would be been so gross...

i'm still trying to come up the the perfect on-a-bike coffee carrying system. so far a handlebar mount thing seems to be the best, although i usually just end up sticking a take-out cup in my bottle holder. something rigged to a basket might work...

I have one of these kicking around in a box somewhere:



It folds away and doesn't take up much space. I was thinking of attaching it to my milk crate but I'm not sure if it will be secure enough for a bike (also I'd have to make sure there's enough heel clearance)

what about mounting it on the handlebars or behind the saddle?
