as I'm riding, the temps dropped below freezing [unfortunately, a lot of car wrecks reported on the morning news]. I wiped out on a wooden bridge. Not a bad mishap, thanks to my guardian angel. Some bruising/soreness on my left knee & hip. The left hood on my handlebars was pushed inward and my chain came off. Was able to put the chain on and make it home without incident.

I was lucky. I wasn't injured, No one around to see me go down, either. I can't wait for winter to end....
VB {{{{{HUG}}}}} Thank goodness you were not hurt more!

I can't imagine going out in this mess this morning - slick and I can't see 10 ft. in front of me. I was hoping to get out on the road (haven't been out yet since hand surgery) one more time in '07 but if it doesn't clear up soon I guess I'll have to hit the trainer again.

I'm with you on ending winter soon!
