It's spring, it's spring, but...

The weather wizard clearly hasn't figured this out yet, but yesterday was officially the first day of spring. It was still chilly yesterday, a little warmer today, but it is warm enough to keep melting that snow from last week. The brightly colored weather map was a storm blown out of proportion - about 6 to 8 inches of snow - enough to mess up the roads, and enough to keep snow melt on the sides of the roads. Yesterday I was a big baby - I didn't feel like coming home with a bike covered in grit, so I rode on the trainer in the dining room. Today was a different story. I had to get outside, and my bike was screaming to hit the road. It was a short ride, and I stayed on major roads that were dry instead of riding through puddles on the smaller roads. Another good early season ride... Now I just hope that the weather wizard fulfills the current forecast for next weekend. I won't tell you what it is because I don't want to jinx myself!
