A Frigid Commute
Winter commuting requires a few things that I have, and a few things that I sometimes do not: It is not that I don't have the layers, the cold weather apparel, the reflective gear or the lighting. Unfortunately, I frequently lack the motivation to make the preparations that are necessary for cold weather commuting. Today was an exception...
The ride in: It was sunny and in the teens, but the wind was non-existent. Sweat levels: low
Comments: I rode my Trek for today’s commute. The ride home was not nearly as enjoyable as the ride in (more wind and much more traffic), but the diesel fumes weren't nearly as bad as those I experienced during this morning's commute.
The ride home: Partly cloudy, mid-thirties and windy.
Number of fellow cyclists seen on both trips: 1 (a recumbent going the wrong way... on the sidewalk)

I actually like sidewalks too. It's not like there are people walking on them, so someone should use them ;)
