Today I felt like going for a bike ride. Due to very cold weather (….and the flu etc etc) I haven’t used my bike in a few weeks. And it’s been outside the whole time. I felt so grateful that the battery somehow had a lot of charge and I could go for a bike ride right away.

What are you grateful for today?

  1. Wow, I’m surprised the battery is still charged, Maria! My bike lives in the house when not in use.

      1. Cold can kill a car battery but the heat seems worse here for them. You’ve got a great bike, Maria!

        1. I am very happy with it. I diod a lot of research before getting it, to make sure it was the best possible fit for our climate.

          1. Great job! Stay warm. A high around 50 here today but sunny, I’ll take that over the days of gray, high winds and occasional showers we’ve had…

  3. Glad you got out for a ride and it was a good one. Our days are finally getting warmer (40F), 👏🏼 but lots of clouds and I’m missing the sun. 6″ of snow coming tomorrow!
