Snow "warm" up

Finished up the work on the bike and let the grip glue set up.  Took the bike out for a few laps around the backyard.  Did a couple miles.  Traction was good.  3-5" of grainy, wind-driven snow.  I think the log with the 90-degree wheelie needs to go.  Good practice, but too much chance of smashing a pipe....not worth it for backyard practice.

It was a good reminder of just how fast you build up body heat.  It was 17 degrees with a fierce wind but I was soaked in sweat after just 2 miles.
