Thanks, Sue. I have no problem with the subjunctive in French, but somehow, in English I'm never quite sure.

One more thing about winter cycling--on the very coldest of days (in the 20s for me), I make sure to put on an old cashmere cardigan sweater as one of my layers. It's better than any $200 cycling specific super cold weather gear you can buy. You can unbutton it as you warm up (but keep the top layer zipped) and you will absolutely be toasty.

I got mine at Goodwill for $3. It has holes, but that's okay. Better ventilation. Has to be cashmere, though. Real cashmere.
