    Today during my lunchtime sleaze ride I witnessed a rider on road/cross bike go down hard at the corner of 15th and P in DC (where the Whole Foods is located)… he came off the road on to the sidewalk and slid on a rather obvious patch of ice. He was helped up by several bystanders (I was on the other side of 15th Street in the bike lane at the light) and was ok but a bit shaken up.

    The point of this story? Please be extra careful out there…

    Went out and did a little riding last night in the fresh snow. if you want a serious workout I highly suggest spending 90 minutes out in -10 degree windchills rolling around on 3.8″ tires in four inches of snow. If the wet snow doesn’t wear you down the 25 mph winds will. Here’s a little video I took last night when the wind gusts were up to 30 mph – wind guts off of Lake Nokomis.

    Props to you, sir. It’s colder out there where you are than it is on Mars. ;)
