    There's no such thing as "Too Cold" to bike, just the wrong clothes!  Keep you hands and ears covered (in addition to the normal things you cover) and you're golden!

    I procured a composting bin. The previous tenant left a mound of compost in my back yard, so I can shovel that on top of my compostables!
