It was cold enough on my commute yesterday (in the car) at around zero, so quite glad today and tomorrow are my WFH days!

Yes, it took me a good 15 minutes to de ice the car today, so the bike is staying put until the ice is gone!

I've left my ebike in the garage this week. I came off it last year on black ice and I'm not keen to repeat the experience.

Brings back memories when the wife and I went out one year between Christmas and New year for a ride. We both came a croper sliding down the road on our butts. Amazingly neither of us suffered any injury at all. Trouble is at our age we don't bounce anymore
