either ride in 9" of wet crud, or wait.



I'm so bored I think I'll change my handle to, I dunno, GymSea? Maybe I should get flat bars. Oh, and put my bar-ends back on?



Plan B: do some work here at the office? Nah. Jim :o|

get those studded tires ready old man and I'll meet ya on the ice for some bike hockey.



Freezing rain here now. Expecting some snow later, but you've got more of the white stuff on the ground than we do....for the moment.

You live next to that bit of waterTwilight Error®

and don't own a sea kayak?!

If I were you, I'd take the rest of the day 'sick' and go price out a nice Kevlar rig. Throw in a pair of pogies, a drysuit (or at least paddling jacket) and a sprayskirt... You'd have a dandy winter sport.

Sure punched a hole in my riding plans - I almost went on the weekend anyhow until I realized that I was really happy staying in bed.



On the plus side, it's saved what was shaping up to be a crappy season on the local ski hills. Plus, Kits Beach was an amazing sight Sunday morning.



ps you need some neon spandex and a vaguely European accent to go with your bar ends. Vive le niege!

Here in Hawaii yesterday we had a little shower, 17 inches in 24 hours on the big island, most areas were 5 to 7 inches. Our rain gauge tops out at 6, it's full.
enjoy
