I saw someone on their bike on 35 this morning. I might be able to do cold on the bike (especially if I had an aerostitch.. isn't that right, Tracy? ), but with chunks of ice and snow flying off cars in front of me, not so much.

Hmm - apparently you dont know geography really well... I suppose that is expected from the MI educational system.

So at 7:40, my dumb-@ss is out in the 30 degree weather with a surfboard wax comb(it's Texas, thats the closest thing i own to an ice scraper), scraping ice off of her Accord. *sigh* that's karma rewarding me for taking a day off.
