Die Hards on Ice.
With slush on the streets now and 16 degrees at 9am tomorrow, maybe we should consider ice skating around CP instead of riding. Wonder if CP police would ticket for skating through red lights?
In any case, another saturday on the spinning bikes instead of on the road.
cancelled again. rats.
