Back to MI.. and have a cold

So after a few days off in the sun ( people said i got tan? ) I am back and rode today.
it was 32 out and the roads had black ice. Boy did it take me out.
Slid across ad intersection and broke a spoke.
Taking the day off tomorrow to heal the wounds and fix the bike.
The trip was good saw lots of people riding, wish i could have too. they had bike lanes all the way to Disney. which was pretty cool. I wonder if you have to pay the 12 dollars to park if you ride.

peace

its so cold in the "D"

yup its so cold.... time to RUN AWAY ( to florida for a week)
current temp for my ride home from Good ol' Apple Somerset


It was a interesting ride.... Got pulled over... by a cop... was kinda weird. He asked me questions like " why was my back pack so large and dark?" And " why am i riding a bike in the winter" my response i don't know to both.
ehhh whatever, Lame.

I get to go somewhere warm tomorrow life is good.

what makes my 15 minute ride...45...

This is why..... leg burning, sweat inducing, snow laden paths. Its been weeks of cold with snow with more cold with more snow. and to that is say " screw this i'm going to florida to thaw out for a week."

this is my bike on a mound of snow in a parking lot on my ride home. I mean really... it half a city block long and easily two stories high.

But i will still ride to work. I smile as i ride... i guess i'm nuts.
