Yesterday was our weekly office day, and I've got a 45 minute bike commute back home across the city. My thumbs were already frozen after 5 minutes. I would have taken my bike into the metro but that's not allowed during rush hour.

So I just suffered through the freezing rain and got home fine to a cup of hot chocolate and a change of clothes. It's actually fine once you're through it. It just sucks when you still have more than half an hour of freezing rain to look forward to. In fact, it's mostly those first 15 minutes that were the worst. After that, you get used to it, you adapt, and just continue through until you're home.

Currently "snowing" in De Pijp even. Still plenty of bicycles.
