It's true! I too am always one step up the next spring. I still remember being so on top of my game in high school track after a winter of cross-country skiing. Now, could spring please come sooner? Or at least snow to ski in and gallop through the fields.

Good luck on the winter commuting. I'm sure we'll have a support group in that forum within a few weeks once the snow really flies!
