    I debated going to a seminar on campus but in the end decided I'd like the excuse to get out of the house. My front brake lever froze. I didn't trust the rear brake alone. My U-lock also froze so I brought the bike inside with me. The brake thawed during the seminar.

    When I got home I called the bike shop. He said they had several frozen bikes in there. It rained yesterday, so the bike was wet and didn't dry completely overnight. The brake lever wasn't frozen in the garage but it froze pretty quick once I got out in the wind.

    I'm supposed to bring my bike inside, and once she is warm and dry, lube the cables. I asked should I treat her to dinner & a movie first? hur hur hur

    Anyway she's next to the christmas tree right now, and tomorrow I'll lube the cables before I go anywhere.

    I rode 2 miles today in sub freezing weather. what a hassle. too hot inside, extremities cold. I am looking forward to our normal Seattle weather and must say i am extremely impressed with those of you who are still riding in this stuff like it's normal and easy.. (like my husband)
