Bah! I actually rode today too, 41F I saw on a bank thermometer, but
only about 25 miles because I couldn't find my heated grip wraps and
I'm a bit 'nesh' at the moment. I still got a big smile out of it.
Bikes rock.

You're trying to make us jealous, aren't you. Stop it, 'cause
it's working! Although, I must say it was a balmy 60 degrees here
in Ithaca, and I did get the Valk out for a short ride. I do
believe that was my first street bike ride in January!

Here's what happens to steel framed buildings exposed
to raging infernos for hours on end.
http://davesweb.cnchost.com/nwsltr69c.html
On 9-11-01, WTC7, a 47 story steel framed building, which
had only small, random fires, dropped in perfect symmetry
at near free fall speed as in a perfectly executed controlled
demolition.
