So, I had to share my happiness with everyone... until about 2 weeks ago, I lived 37 miles from work. I lived in the mtns and had to get to work via one of the most dangerous roads in the country... alas, no commuting by bike. I moved to within about 7 blocks of work. I can choose to walk or ride, but I cannot drive because i have not bought a parking pass

I knew the move was coming up, so I bought a surly LHT and outfitted it with pink fenders and a pink water bottle cage and one of those cute little Krog Frog lights (in pink) - the bike is grey-blue and black with silver accents - it was screaming for some feminization.

This was my first week or work, and I rode 2.5 days by bike (had one day off already ), and today it was snowy and icy so I walked. Any suggestions on riding in the snow and ice? I am SO happy to ride! Furthermore, from the lab, I can look out at where I parked my bike and smile when I see it (and make sure no on is messing with it)!
