    Careful out there...

    The roads are steadily getting better but there is still ice out there.

    I crashed my bicycle out in Harvard, MA this morning around 10AM, really big patch of ice, I was trying to ride through it at like 10mph. The guy in front of me lost his front tire and I slammed into him and went over the bars.

    Don't think I would have been able to get a motorcycle through it.

    There was actually so much ice I didn't even get a scratch on my bike, and just ended up with a bruising on my lower back and my right arm. Just crashed down on the ice and slid.

    Riding

    Hey Ben! Another Ben here. I went mountain biking today, and there was a lot of snow and ice on the trails. I live on tge shoreline in Ct. The winter has been so shitty that we had to get out there. It can only improve, hopefully. Good you weren't hurt.

    Hey Ben-

    I hear you with the black ice..with the recent melt the AM rides are a little tricky..I went out @ 8 and one of the guys I was with spilled on some black ice as well..the water had run into the middle of the road and everyone went into survival mode..
