An Ode to Studded Tires



The rain started so nice.
What was once water is ice.
Without them I'd really think twice.
Confident in my studs I press on.

Sleet is stinging my face.
I keep a moderate pace.
It's a commute not a race.
Confident in my studs I press on.

The temperature's now below freezing.
The fluffy white snowflakes are pleasing.
The weather's not mean, it's just teasing.
Confident in my studs I press on.

Early Morning Cyclist Inspiration

The second day on the new steed "Pegasus".  I'm starting to get use to the horse like size of the 29er.  I took the long way in today.  Almost 2 hours or riding before work!!!
