Thanks for the update. Unfortunately I won’t be able to report on my monday commute in as I’ve been officially ordered OFF the bike for the foreseeable future. Gawd Metro is just gonna plain suck

CCrew, you have our love and sympathy! So very, very sorry to hear that. Keep cycling here on the forum regardless. You’re an important part of this group!

Mounted my Nokian’s last night – I’m ready to go! Thanks for the update.

CCrew – sorry to hear that you’ll be off the bike. Heal quickly and see you out there soon!

Ugh, where’s the “dislike” button? Good luck on Metro, hope you’re back riding ASAP.

Oh well… I guess I failed (and yes, I have this shirt )

All you folks that have your studded tires should be quite happy with Monday’s morning commute. I just rode the section of the W&OD near west st and the bridge over broad st. Heading towards DC, there are at least three patches of chunky black ice between shreve rd and the bridge over broad st.

The bridge itself had about half an inch of snow covered by a little ice, it was super fun and I giggled like crazy, but wouldn’t want to have to deal with that on the commute. go slow and be safe in the morning!

Herndon to Reston was well plowed by Monday morning, save for the bridges. I took the MTB but on standard mud knobbies, and had NO issues. Rather pleasant.

Back on the roadie today, horray thaw!
