	Sometimes riding in the winter you will get ice on your rims
If you are wearing gloves put your thumb against the rim with your 
finger nail pressed against the rim.  I wear pearl izumi gloves and find
this cleans them right off while still going on the trail.  
	If your components are freezing up keep them lubed better.  Remember
oil repels water.  So keep things lubed.  It can save you from a broken chain
or frozen derailleur during a race
