I hearby resolve to only blog about people saying things I find interesting or challenging, and avoid linking to things to people saying things daft or outrageous. They do it all the time. There's no shortage, and it isn't worth paying attention. Please grumble at me when I forget this. _

Ugh. I have road-salt in my hair. I really do need to get mud-guards. This morning I was thinking: I leave the bicycle in a relatively safe place, and the number of people willing to steal a bicycle in the middle of winter must be fairly small anyway. The trouble with locking it up is the lock sometimes freezes up. The only reliable way of unfreezing it I've found using commonly found office equipment is to tip a cup of hot water over it. This, of course, gets it nice and wet, more or less assuring that it will continue to freeze up, so I end up putting it in a warm oven to dry out. This is all quite a lot of trouble, to protect a bicycle in a fenced off parking lot, invisible from the road, from being stolen by someone silly enough to steal a cheap, extremely recognizable recumbant bicycle in the middle of winter. It's added to the inconvenience of fiddling with the key and the lock. _
