Took advantage of the well consolidated base with a dusting of new to tour from home to the atmospheric science department at UW. Skinned 19th Ave to the intersection with 45th St and carried across to avoid slush. Pulled skins and skated Stevens way to the point where a slight grade made a few turns possible. Skated back past the fountain and over to the ATG. Sitting in the office watching snow fall doesn't feel so bad now.

A man after my own heart. U district represent.

There's about a minute and a half of thrilling downhill on Ravenna, provided you have a car spotter.

How about the viaduct?  I can't believe it is still open.  Put some barricades up and hit it tonight?
