Another pleasant ride to today especially for February

  This mornings dry and painless. Tonight I came home on on the LFP north From Fullerton to Foster

  some rain and east wind all was good.

As of 7:30 pm 35 degrees not sure it will get cold enough in the city tonight for any significant snow accumulation. We will see :)

Piece of cake coming an going.  Did get a first flat with the Schwalbe Marathons.  My fault of course.

Must be OCD with tire pressure.  Filled'em or over filled, drove to work.  Bike comes inside where it's warm.  Four hours later tube bursts.  Whoops!  Nice place and conditions for a commuter to change a tube.  Warm well lit had the proper tools.  Let's all sleep tight and find out about the precipitation situation in the morning.  Cause as of 8:30 P.M. nothings going on out dare.   






Do this:

Go to Google.

Enter "chainlink I rode today."

Quickly click the link to this thread.

Tell me what happens . . .

11:20 and still too warm for snow. wind at my back the entire way home though.

I just came back from a short 5 mile ride in the snow/slush... my cross bike with fenders is in the shop and I was stuck on my MTB. I forgot how much fun riding in the snow is, until I was on my way home and all the cars were out

Well, if I skip past the obvious advertisement for chainlink fencing, and I've included the quotation marks and period (which makes the search hyper-specific), I get led back to your post right here, which seems reasonable. If I delete the quotation marks and period, I'm led to the first page of this thread, which again seems like a reasonable result.  What unusual results are you getting, h', if I'm interpreting your query correctly?

This, so it looks like system came and went.  I'm a M-F'er, I am.  

Well for a system that came and went, a lot of snow is falling. :)

It can be ridden on though, if anyone is on the fence. I got to the office intact, but wet.

Wear eye protection. Next time I ride this kind of snow I'll be bringing an extra pair of shoes - or riding in boots or something. My jeans are also pretty wet, so it might be prudent to wear rain pants, but it is fairly warm, so that could get sweaty.  Southsiders prepare for a headwind!

Occasionally I think it would be useful to have a street cam, as the streets are rarely as bad as one might think if one just listens to the sensational weather reports on the radio or tv. But it seems we already have a street cam named Gene! 

Lincoln and Wells were pretty well salted- just a few slushy areas this morning, depending on what time you rode. Not a bad day at all to ride.

Was bone dry till I hit the Kedzie protected lane and it's 2+ inches of slush... instantly soaked.  But that's what spare clothes at work are for.
