This morning's ride

From today's almost-daily diary entry (www.ChainReaction.com/diary.htm)

02/27/03- INTERESTING VISION as I descended 84 from Sky Londa and came to the intersection at the
bottom, where Portola Road comes in, and cars sometimes make a left turn in front of you
while you're traveling at high speed. For a moment it appeared a propane tanker was about to
do just that, and I had this bizarre vision of me slamming into it with an apocalyptic
fireball the result. Dick (our Redwood City sales manager) thinks I've been watching too
many movies... the likely result would have more likely been a dented front grill, maybe a
broken headlight if I did any real damage (to the truck; I'm sure I would have been pretty
messed up).

At least you'd be warm!

This winter here in NH will not quit. Finally, today was over 32 deg but the roads are either sand,
holes or ice.

So I noticed. I'm heading out to DC for the Bike Summit next week, looks like more of the
same. Yuck!

I'd like to thank Mother Nature for this fine winter. My past 3 days skiing on 80-116 inches of snow
in WV was splendid! The 5 inches of powder yesterday was a bonus!
