[07:11] <Cheri703> Unit193: I rode home from work tonight! was...an adventure
[07:12] <Unit193> Heh, no kidding! Mom said she had problems coming home, and she was in a van!
[07:13] <Unit193> How well could you see?
[07:17] <Cheri703> pretty well, it was just WINDY
[07:17] <Cheri703> apparently it is -2 with windchill
[07:17] <Cheri703> I actually had no slipping issues
[07:17] <Cheri703> and that was on the bike!
[07:17] <Cheri703> trike should (FINALLY) arrive next week. I will be SET for the icy weather
[07:19] <Unit193> Wow, this sounds fun, bike at 2am :P
[07:19] <Cheri703> still need better leg protection :s legs are COLD, have been home since ~1:30am
[07:20] <Unit193> Well, that's crazy, I should try somehting like that :P
[07:22] <Unit193> You have the thermal stuff now?
[07:23] <Cheri703> well, I have long-johns, but...I need something wind-proof and warmer
[07:23] <Cheri703> problem is that the GOOD stuff is like $80/pair
[07:23] <Cheri703> Unit193: be very careful about keeping your wheels under you
[07:24] <Cheri703> I have a bit of an advantage with my recumbent bike, as my center of gravity is lower and with the e-bike kit, a LOT of weight over the back wheel, so I keep traction and it is harder to have my front wheel skid out
[07:24] <Unit193> No kidding, even when running (harder if you have solid into slick)
[07:24] <Cheri703> yeah, I wore my yaktrax while riding, so my foot wouldn't slip when I had to put it down at lights
[07:26] <Unit193> Tree fell in the woods, will make sledding that much harder :/
[07:27] <Cheri703> that sucks
[07:31] <Unit193> Right across the "path" too
[07:39] <Cheri703> :s
[07:39] <Cheri703> get out there with a saw!
[07:41] <Unit193> Really thought about it, but it might make for a nice ramp ;)  (More like make me into a crmmy)
[07:43] <Cheri703> crmmy?
[07:43] <Cheri703> know what sounds REALLY good right now?
[07:43] <Cheri703> a hot burger and crispy fries....
[07:44] <Cheri703> what will I likely eat? either nothing OR polish sausage on a bun...we'll see
[07:45] <Unit193> Dummy, but with lag. And food is sounding good again :/
[07:48] <Cheri703> yeah, I am cold and hungry :( if this was a bigger city, I could go ANYWHERE and eat, this time of night, there are like 2 options, and none nearby
[07:49] <Unit193> There are a few close to here, but I'd just go down, not out
[07:51]  * Cheri703 goes to forage
[07:56]  * Cheri703 decides it isn't worth the effort required
[07:57] <Cheri703> I have to leave early for work tomorrow to go to the pharmacy, so might leave EXTRA early so I can pick up some lunch
