But even colder tomorrow apparently. Predicted high for tomorrow has a minus in front of it. Of course, that is minus F, today's high was about -15C.
It was so cold that I didn't go out at all (except for bread) and so didn't notice the UPS package delivery until on a whim I checked the tracking information in the shipping confirmation e-mail. It said 3:08pm at the front door. I looked. Brrrrrr. But the package was indeed there.
It is bicycle content and at least a story.
I get my tires on line at a vendor which provides free shipping and a point system which provides me 10 percent of what I paid for these tires discounted off my next order. I typically get a bit under 2,000 miles on a set of tires. I ride more miles than that MOST years so I typically need four new tires per season.
On Black Friday I received an e-mail notification of sale from my preferred vendor. My preferred tires usual MSRP $75 at $48. I ordered four.
On Cyber Monday I received another e-mail notification of sale. Same tires, now $37. I e-mailed them and asked if this was fair and they responded with a $45 credit to my previous purchase.
Four for the price of two, plus 10 percent credit on my next purchase.
Too cold today for any actual bicycling.

Michelin makes a nice tire. And who doesn't like a good bargain?
It never occurred to me that icicle was a part of bicycle. Nice word play.
Dang, it's cold where you live.
Good deal. You've got to watch those internet sales.
It's going to be a cold weekend.
My friend Pat would be proud of you. Fair is fair.
Nice tires, and very savvy shopping!
Cold enough for you today?
