Good idea, Miranda, but I'm picturing now a troubled weather system...storms one day, melt the next, storms, melt, storms....we'll be so busy shovelling that neither one of us will get to use our new toys Although, I have to admit this year is looking like a good xcountry ski season, so you're probably not going to waste money on that purchase.

But, now, ladies, while I admit that Slush Kicker is a pretty bike (as it stares at me from the dining room), slush is her destiny. Can I deny her her destiny? Would that not be cruel and unusual bike punishment? No, designed for slush she was, and slush she must attack. It is only a matter of time
