I'm Not Skidding

Biked to work today. The pug in the am. It's dark. Lights don't work as good when no snow on ground. First time through Theo trail since mid-summer. Those logs, last years vision are looking bare. Can we ice'em up again? Will they last in 2012? Also, why is skidding on a pug so worthy. Big fat skids....just can't help it. Slow skid, fast skid, straight skid, left skid, up skid down skid, skid kid skid!
