Just wondering if when it's known that there can be black ice on the
roads if anyone here wears a helmet or other protection (such as elbow
pads) that they'd not normally wear when the roads are clear. Do you?
My approach to that is to switch to walking. When there's black ice,
it's too damned cold for pleasant cycling- and to be honest,
pleasantness is an important factr in riding a bike for me. My bigger
concern is that half or more of drivers are barely paying attention when
the streets are clear- combine obliviousness with black ice and I don't
wanna be out there.
