January riding

Did you ride your bike much in January? Did you ride much in lieu of car? Did you take your bike on the bus any? I didn't this month, so maybe somebody repped it. Jim and I together rode about 800 miles this month. Much of it was cold by Alabamian standards. I rode to a Huntsville Chamber Music Guild concert and someone in the parking lot commented that there must be a warmer method of transportation. But 5 minutes into the ride I wasn't cold at all. It takes that long for a car to warm. And I didn't have a cold catalytic converter producing extra pollution during that time. There will never be a more efficient method of transportation on land. Or at least not in my lifetime.
