Nice first ride in the COLD.

Is it considered bad form to post a "yes" to this thread every day you've ridden?

With 2012 right around the corner, perhaps a new thread? Along the lines of how was your commute today or more general how was your ride today? Rather than did you ride today? Many like yourself won't be backing off the saddle due to brisk air temps. Just a thought.

Everyone else must have the day off and still be in bed. I didn't see a soul on Halsted/Lincoln/Wells this morning! BTW, still great biking weather. What a difference from last Christmas.

I don't think so. The question IS "did you ride today?"

And, I think it's fun in the Winter to get motivated by each other.

So far it's been a great Bike Winter.

Took LFP home after work last night. Felt like early Fall!

Weatherman says more to come!

I thought it might be slick this morning but it was just wet, and quite pleasant.

Traffic wonderfully light due to school break.

The oak street beach bend on the lake shore bike path was covered in ice at 6:30a. Fell and slipped toward the water. Had to retreat. Called it into park security. Unless it warms up, I'd suggest staying away.

Yep. On city streets you need to look out for the black ice where cars/trucks/buses have splashed water out from the curbs onto the traffic lanes. Other than than, nice commute. Temp in low 20's, no problem.
