Hey Sheriff, you closed the poles pretty early? 3 o'clock hour? BTW I'm in to volunteer 3/3/2012. Now kids where's that sign up sheet? ; )

The afternoon light sprinkle actually felt kind of good! The weather was perfect for someone who was dressed right. It was the 3rd time I commuted the 25-mile r/t this February. Last year I didn't even get on the bike 'til March. Spring is the time to make resolutions, so a new, easy one for me is more miles every month than last year!

Anyone prepping for tomorrow? It sounds like we'll be getting a good sized snow storm. I've got some business in the loop tomorrow, so I'll just be taking the red line instead. It's been a good week of commuting - though the rain on my naked eyes last night stung a bit.

The morning commute was pretty nice- although I didn't see many other cyclists on Lincoln. I heard about a snowstorm coming in, I might catch the start of it on my commute home. I'll ride tomorrow depending on how windy/icy it is in the morning. As far as prepping for the weather, I have my bar mitts, balaclava, goggles and I usually just use a light jacket with layers and some warm boots, and I have semi-knobby hybrid tires on the bike so I should be set.

The commute downtown from Hyde Park was also beautiful this morning. While the southern half of the LFP is typically near-deserted, today it was seemingly flush with cyclists (and runners).
I gotta say, I love the snow, and am looking forward to the ride home and the ride tomorrow.
Melanie, you totally seem set for whatever comes our way. I've been using the Bar Mitts this winter as well, but feeling kind of guilty since it hasn't really been all that cold. Still, I've now gotten used to having really toasty hands.

Lincoln really did seem deserted this morning! I made a deal with myself--if I leave early enough to ride both ways today, I won't feel too down on myself for taking the train tomorrow if conditions deteriorate. It's alright to take the occasional day off, right?

+1 Lincoln did seem bare.
I always hope that the weather (snow) isn't as bad as they predict. But I have snow boots, fleece balaclava, goggles, and some huge ski gloves ready and waiting for some colder/snowier weather.
