in addition to being on snow or ice here are the rules of the danger panda
1)both hands must be off the bars
2)look into camera
3)bike must be in motion, no cheating by leaning the bike out of shot
4)you must take the picture yourself
5)the bike must be in the shot
if you are on flickr as well as posting here add it to the danger panda group http://www.flickr.com/groups/1458163@N23/

so, let's see what ya got!

Your bike looks stationary to me, and for that reason you are out 😉

Here you are, RD.
Proof it's winter due to it being 730 AM when these were taken on my commute home from work.
Stage 1: terror.

Stage 2: confidence.

Stage 3: Added danger(removing the glasses means I have a focal distance of about 14 inches and note I am in a construction site) right as my front tyre hits a pot hole. Look at those handle bars jackknife!
