Seems like you are having better weather than I am here. We saw a high of 40 yesterday and only mid-30's today.

We will peak-out each day next week in the low 50's, but the majority of the day will remain in the 30's. It's rideable, but still chilly.
I am going to avoid riding until the salt is washed off the roads. It is really bad around here. The roads are pure white like the Bonneville Salt Flats.

While I appreciate the road-crews' efforts; they seem to have over done the salt this year -- as if they have a quota of salt they need to use whether it is needed or not. I am assuming it is a department budget "thing". In other words; use all the salt or else we cannot order as much next year.
