I have three huge bags of fleece ready for the current generation of crafters to turn into freebies to keep ears, cheeks, and necks warm. Please help me liberate space in my basement by taking a bag and promising to put it to good use.

Are you coming to Slow Roll tomorrow? Should be a great start to Bike Winter. http://www.thechainlink.org/events/mending-broken-fences-a-communit...

Had my first winter spill this morning. My tire got caught in a gash in the road on Wells and I went down. Landed on my side. Knee is swollen and a bit painful, but otherwise I am okay.

Speaking of fleece, I have the 25 or so balaclavas from the last fleece party. They're a little snug and in a light color - might be good for kids? Or a group of people with small craniums? 

ANYWAY, Bike winterers, if anyone is going to a gathering before Dec CCM and wants to distribute them, please friend/PM me and I will get them to ya.

Cross-posting from mailing list to cover all bases:

I saw an email recently about buying some SurveyMonkey months for 2013 sticker design voting.  Sorry, I'm at work now, and don't have that handy, so, responding from memory.

I added survey/poll/vote capabilities to MassUp.us this year, after Survey Monkey proved disappointing and expensive on some WNBR polls.  Ultimately we used MassUp.us extremely successfully for the big date change poll and others.  It's super simple, handles validating and fraud checking, works from PC or smartphone, and outputs spreadsheet and analysis reports.

I've thrown together a sample using some sticker images from last year at http://MassUp.us/poll

If whoever's handling the vote planning would like to use that, just ask.  No charge.

Also, I've been shipping free stickers to cyclists since 2011.02 from the form at http://MassUp.us/stickers I'd be glad to add BW to the set, I just never got around to asking before.
