Observations: I was more than adequately warm with: wool socks, wool long underwear, a hand-knit sweater, my Boathouse jacket, and wool cap. And my aging Pearl Izumi gloves (love those things!). My face and eyes, however, were slightly less than comfortable - I didn't adequately secure my pashmina scarf over my nose, and well-vented ski goggles are seeming like a worthwhile investment. Overall, not too bad.
Goog's "bike there" option needs a checkbox for "fewest stoplights." It sent me on the shortest possible route, which is almost ridiculously short (slightly over a mile), but the route passes straight through downtown Lincoln, with a stoplight every block. That was fine for walking, but I think I need to explore the bike paths for biking in. I'm also going to need to figure out a fitness regimen to start gearing up for the spring brevet season here.

Although, it'd also be nice to sort by stopsigns, because at least with stoplights you have a chance.
