Ice riding????

Lesson #1:   STAY HOME, and spend the time cleaning your bike, and organizing all the cycling shtuff that you've got strewn all over the place...   Your spouse will appreciate it!

Oh.......... Well, you had posted a Saturday ride. I just assumed you were going to show us all how to handle the ice.

I saw a forecast for 40% chain of rain(showers) for Sunday. I rode 200+ miles last week-I'm still waiting to turn the wheels this week.
Tomorrow ,Saturday & Sunday don't look good for riding if you're a candya$%(when it comes to the cold) randonnuer.

Actually I prefer FWD deltas with rear steer for ice riding http://www.flickr.com/photos/velomobiling/2224563612/  Grin

I ride my bike to ride my bike, and sometimes it takes me where I need to go.

Well, it sounds like we're going to miss the ice this weekend anyway, and settle for some good old fun cold rain.
