Be careful out there, bikerHen! That ride on Sunday on gravel roads in the woods was exhausting, with a 4-5 inch layer of wet slush on the ground. Just enough to pack up in the treads of my rear tire and make it skid a few inches EVERY (insert expletive of choice) PEDAL STROKE!

I was very happy I wasn't out commuting that day. (But still a bit too stupid to just turn around and go home).
