That ride back east from south was something else! I was directly into that spiky, horizontal blizzard at about 5. I enjoyed it. No tumbles so that’s good... but did anyone else have to spend an hour rinsing their steed in warm water and re-greasing it? Today I found myself wishing I had a garage for the first time in my life! Slopping suds over a bike in -5 wind chill is not my bag!
