It's January 3rd

...and I biked to school today. Have you ever biked in January? It was a first for me. It wasn't the most pleasant ride. First, there's ice all over the road so I was constantly slipping all over the place. To make matter's worse, my feet were tethered into the pedals so I couldn't even put my foot down in preparation for the major crash I was doomed to suffer. Second, my gear thingy (I'm speaking very technical, bear with me) was frozen so I couldn't shift down or up. So there I was, skidding and slipping and tethered, pedaling like a maniac because I was in the easiest gear possible. It was a terrifying and hilarious ride to school today, and it's January 3rd.
