Snow!
2007-12-02
It snowed a lot in Chicago today. I learned a few things
- Cycling on snow is actually not that bad...
- ...as long as the snow doesn't do anything to your bike...
- ...such as it melting and making your seat wet...
- ...or melting and freezing again to form a, shall we say, "icing" for your seat...
- ...or freezing on your brakes so there's no friction at all.
I rode my bike to the computer lab, and was forced to walk it back because by the time I left, it had turned to hailing. The last two bullet points actually happened to me.
On the other hand, it snowed! So I can't complain.
