To me, a city is just a cut above when it has local rail service, although I've yet to live in one that does. My goal is relocating to a city where I can combind bike, rail and bus service and live completely car free.<br /><br />Here in Flag, winter is pretty cold due to high elevation. Smartwool socks are a godsend. They keep my feet warm and dry, even when skiing in deep snow. They cost more but are worth every penny. Haven't worn their gloves yet but they will be my first post-Christmass purchase.She Rides a Bikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10269615938898501712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3440844456463948816.post-31194856653797381932010-12-21T03:49:27.942-05:002010-12-21T03:49:27.942-05:00A friend of mine just returned to Vancouver from A...A friend of mine just returned to Vancouver from Atlanta. So he left the icy south to return to one of the warmest and rainiest winters I've ever seen here! We've had one day of snow and a couple of days where it got below freezing so far. On one of those days I did manage to run into some ice and perform a solo Three Stooges routine on my bike though.nowherehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12125582590094636085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3440844456463948816.post-53597175759300094352010-12-18T08:56:58.054-05:002010-12-18T08:56:58.054-05:00I live in the northern exurbs, and getting home to...I live in the northern exurbs, and <a href="http://farmanor.blogspot.com/2010/12/longest-drive.html" rel="nofollow">getting home took a while</a> (like 5 hours).
