Those are some really cool pictures (like all yours I've seen, for instance those of CCM). The windows in my apartment look very much like that.
It was a cold ride in today, but as my friend told me "there's no bad weather, just bad clothing choices." He attributed that quote to a Norwegian person he met.
I'm nursing a swollen ankle, and haven't ridden today. But I'll probably start crawling the walls at some point then obstinately head out and go laugh at the cold.
I'm hoping that my beater bike will be ready at the shop tonight. I'll probably go and run some errands on it. I've really been itching to buy more yarn before I'm relaxing at Christmas.
I hope I remembered to bring all my cold weather gear with me to work!
