I don't make new year resolutions, but this year I did think that I'd like to ride more. Of course, in winter, this is problematic because the weather is so changeable, usually for the worse, and you have to take every opportunity to ride that you can, because you never know when the next chance is going to be.
When you do get to go, when the weather and roads offer a brief dry respite between winter showers, you bundle up in many layers and get out on the road, and whether you are to be admired (by kids, especially, who smile and wave and point and tug their parents' hands) or squashed (by cars with no concept of why they have mirrors or indicators) or just mistrusted (by pedestrians who don't believe you understand the concept of a zebra crossing in a parking lot) is as changeable as the weather.
