AM - 10 miles up to work. Slippery, snowy, and slowly (like 8:30 pace). Went to see Radical Reels last night - watch the first couple minutes of this trailer if you want to get fired up for the weekend. It was really cool - as always, the rock climbers have the best stories... those guys are such characters. And I was blown away by the mountain bikers. The only downside of the evening was that I didn't get to bed until 11pm - 2.5 hours past my bedtime! And I got rear-ended by some idiot on the drive home in the snow, but luckily my thule bike rack totally protected my jeep.

PM - 8.6 miles home.  

Update on the LR plan for tomorrow - I'm thinking rather than the shuttle run, lets just meet at SHP / Highland High School and do it as an out & back. Its about 10 miles up to the hairpin turn in the canyon from there. That way if road conditions are bad, we can easily change course, and if they are great, then we've completely earned all that sweet downhill coming back down. 8AM - there will probably be folks running different paces.

I think you are smart not doing it. You're definitely pulling a Lily. ha :)

I'll find an alternative way to make tomorrow count :-)

Oh I bet you will! So will I!

That sucks that someone ran into your jeep. People really suck at driving in the snow.

Running fast in the snow/ice = stupid. Good call and I really think it is going to clear up tomorrow in the valleys.

For what it's worth, I've found that the canyon road is always better than I think it's going to be in bad weather.

Drive up it later and check it out maybe.

I got rear-ended 3 times in 4 months in 2011. Idiots (said in my Napoleon Dynamite voice)! Good to hear there wasn't any damage to your Jeep.
