So you didn't get the job, or they are stringing you on some more? Either way, yeah, it sucks.

I actually drove to 18th/Stinson. Then parked and biked till I got to the south side of Como on 18th and the roads were not plowed and severely rutted so I walked till I got to Brook Ave then biked all the way to Coffman Union. Brook Ave wasn't plowed either but it was all powder and the best part of the ride.

I rode to DT, took the train to Ft.. Snelling where I slipped and slid until the Mendota bridge where I pushed my ride for 1 mile and then I finished off with a nice ride to work. Tonight I will be busing it across the river on the 7:33 466 and then ride the bike home from there. Until they plow the bridge I will be multi-modal which sucks

I left for work 15 minutes early to arrive 45 minutes late. I probably walked 1/4 of it. Sidestreets are terrible pre-plowing.

Today I rode my 2.1" Velociraptors instead of 1.75" Marathon Winters. They definitely work better in deep powder, especially at minimum pressure, while the Marathons are better for the hardpack that will form soon. I'll ride these for a day or two before I switch back.
