I walked out to my bike yesterday - and when I looked at the street I saw it was glittering with frost and black ice! I drove my car to work, but by about 9 AM the sun is up and the roads are fine. When I looked out the window of my office through the workday, I saw the occasional motorcycle or scooter out in the sun.

Looks like it will be the same story today. I leave for work in about 20 minutes, but I think I will have to drive: the temp is right at the freezing mark now, and the lawns and cars are all covered with a thick layer of frost. I could ride, but I'm worried about patches of black ice.

Ah well; it's supposed to be sunny and dry all weekend, so I'm sure I will get some saddle time in tomorrow and Sunday!
