Snow: crystallized water, or an excuse to ride my commuter bike?
Forcast is for cold temps over the next few days; but the training plan dictates the usual 2 hours per day during the week. I hate riding nowhere in front of the TV, so lugged the commuter bike (formerly my racing 'cross bike of the past 4 years) out of the shed and took off down canyon. Not having a proper commuter bike until recently has meant that I don't get a lot of practice riding into work in inclement weather, and it showed this morning. Coming into a hard corner over a wooden bridge on the bike path, I slipped out. One split second before making the turn, I remember thinking to myself "I should slow down for this one" . Slight scrape on the elbow seems to be the only damage.

at least the way back is uphill,just watch out for cars slipping out in the corners... it'll hurt more than an elbow.
