Bad Cycling Weather

The last time I rode the bike was Friday, 17 December.  Beautiful day for it.... but over the weekend we received about 10" of snow followed by another foot a couple days later, then a couple inches on top of that.
We had over 24" of knee-deep snow followed by several days of below-freezing temperatures, so the snow has been slow in fading away.  Then this last week between Christmas and New Years has been spent largely at home busting up firewood and enjoying visiting kids and grandkids.  A few more cold shots....

Here's a shot of the snowman Christopher a nd Jason constructed, with very wet snow that was beginning to melt but produced a snowman that would make Calvin and Hobbes jealous:

I expect to begin riding at least the 14+ miles a day starting my first day at work on Monday, 2 Jan 2012.
We might try a joint Jacque & Jim ride down the Bosque trail on Saturday:  We'll see.
