New Semester

January, 2010.

After a hiatus due to crazy schedules, exams, interviews, holidays, etc, I am back in the saddle.  This time, I'm armed with a few new pieces that hopefully will make bike commuting safer and more manageable in these short, cold, dark Pennsylvania winter days. 

SunRingle Rhyno Lite wheelset (Thanks, Cycle9!)

2 Trek Flare 10led taillights at the rear of the Freeradical. 

Rear SKS fender installed and adorned with about a 12" vertical segment of red reflective tape.

Cygolite halogen dual beam 16w headlight. 

Performancebike Illuminite jacket.

Best of all, Schwalbe, Marathon Winter studded snow tires.

First ride in today was cold with a 15mph headwind.  Part of the bikepath was covered in mud from a recent flood along the river.  But is felt great!  Here's to another car-lite semester.

more later...
