SMART: Riding your bike up the hill bike trail across what might be black ice as straight and quick as possible.
STUPID: On the third and last lap testing if it's actually black ice by snapping the handlebars sideways a bit.
VERDICT: If it looks like black ice, assume it is. Your knees will thank you.
smarter still: if there's black ice, ride the stationary bike INSIDE!
