Commuter diaries - 1st ride of the year
Tue, Jan 05, 2010 20:28

Well, back in the saddle after the holiday season and it is great! Despite or because of the freezing fog, snow, ice and temperature the riding is awesome. This morning was a veritable winter wonderland with a glistening frost and red clouds. Wrapped up with Buff thermal, over shoes and my trusted Altura Night Vision Jacket (the brightest and warmest I have), I set off into the traffic. Must get some pictures tomorrow in the snow!
Get out and ride.
