ice

Much like last Saturday, this Saturday brought snow into the valley. Fortunately the roads weren't as nasty as last week, save some bridges and very isolated areas. The big purple Lemond with fenders once again got the nod for the day... I love fenders on nasty days. The wheels (old Vector Comps) still have water in the rims from who knows how long ago. I weighed the bike after getting into work today... 27.5 pounds without bottles, but with some ice build up. That's quite a bit of heft right there.

The ride itself was pretty ordinary, although the occasional changeover to sleet kept my facial nerves occupied. It'll be cold tonight... I look forward to riding the Klein (hopefully) tomorrow.
