#yegbike commute: a chilly -7°C morning with light southwest wind.
Surfaces have crunchy ice/snow patches at many points, but maybe 75% bare pavement. Ordinary gravel tires did the job, but caution was required.
Traffic quite light, a fair amount of people about, including other bike commuters.
Plenty of birdsong, most welcome as was the dawn.
A good but chilly ride.
#earworm was a Sarah Harmer playlist. Don’t know why my brain chose that, but I didn’t mind at all.

#yegbike commute: even though the temperature is only -3°C, the medium gusty northwest winds make for a miserable, cold and grey ride. Some light snow barely covering the surfaces, with some crunchy ice/snow patches. Nothing the gravel bike with ordinary gravel tires couldn’t handle.
Light traffic, not many people out and about.
Such is life.
Sad to say the #earworm is once again ‘In The bleak Midwinter’. Snow on snow on snow.
Not as bad as other parts of the country, but not great for us either.

Hello, #yegbike people. I have a perfectly functional pair of pogies for anyone who likes to cycle in snowy or rainy weather without getting frosty fingers. I’ve accepted that my #WinterBiking days are over and I’d love to see these go to a good home.

City Council wants to end seven of their Advisory Committees buff.ly/JM8f13u This is a bad idea. The City already struggles at times to hear and reflect the voices of residents, especially people who are often underrepresented in public processes and within administration itself. #yeg #yegbike
