I saw bicycle tire tracks in the snow.
I followed them to see where they go.

I slide over bridges, skated steel rails,
And I did not fall nor break a nail.

Let it snow, let it blow, let us rock and roll
in the windy white city called Chicago!

Side streets in Hyde Park-Kenwood are dicey today because of the slippery compacted layers of snow made by automobiles. We need a name for this nasty stuff. Any suggestions?

First wipeout in traffic of the season this morning! Jumped up and did a little dance so the cars weren't spooked, rolled on down Clark.

The guys at Iron Cycles kicked some serious ass today by opening their doors to me a little early to let me get a replacement wheel this morning so I could kick up some powder today. Thanks for teh sweet rim and great service guys! www.iron-cycles.com

What a great day to bike to work!! Two inches of fresh powder and a cloud of still falling snow. I love days like today.

Did I mention the $1 drafts and $4.50 pitchers? They also welcomed me and my bike inside today to repair a flat. Terry and Linda's Corner Bar at 2224 N. Leavitt, the Snow Riders salute you!

Last night's Snow Ride was a success, in spite of arriving at the Handlebar to find it closed. Ample snow was available and two new potential meeting spots were discovered, to the joy of all.
