Warm Feet & Style

For Christmas my fiancee gave me a pair of Gore Tex insulating shoe covers. These are not the waterproof type (which I already have). These have a much higher insulating factor. So far they are working out great. I wouldn't say they are the best looking accessory for biking but they will help to get you noticed on the road.

Windy Morning

I snapped a quick video to give you a sense of the wind I was fighting this morning. The sound tells the story more than anything. As a side note I did not see any other people on the trail this morning even though temperatures were slightly above freezing. You can see there is still plenty of ice in the creek though.

I'm Back in The Saddle

You might have wondered if I gave up during the cold Nebraska winter and moved out of state. It's definitely much more challenging commuting than in Portland. With new warmer gear today I sent back out. Now to give you a flavor the bike parking, and I'm complaining because I'm happy to have this new indoor parking space, have a look for yourself with and without flash around 7 a.m this morning.
