ugh. salt. (definitely not bringing my bikes, then) i had a bad salty winter in chicago last year, and it ate one of my tange/mangalloy frames to death. i had a short commute to work, but it was below minus 17 for the first two weeks of the year. tears-frozen-to-cheeks, hurts-to-breathe cold. haaaaate. will make a point to pack fenders.
it was sunny and 19c in DC today. epic riding for my last day as a courier
