I can't say the weather's been bad here in portland lately, but between the cold, damp, and schoolwork, I haven't been getting a lot of riding done lately. How about you?

Oh yeah, and congrats to the University of Portland (my school) women's soccer team: 2002 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS! ! ! !

I hate to say this, but the fall is premier cycling weather down here in FL. Temps have been up in the mid 70's and down in the low 50's at night. We've had a couple days of rain, but the forecast is great for the upcoming weekend.

I've ridden more in the last 4 weeks than I've ridden in the previous 4 months!

Wow...I 'could' have been riding if I owned lights and colder riding gear...but really rain doesn't stop me. Now...I don't do winters so I am done for 5 months or so. Training time.

Let's see ... schoolwork, cold and damp have never been among the things that kept me off a bike.:D It was exciting to see the University of Portland win. I'd always heard they were good (I went to Willamette) but didn't know they were that good.

Ill be riding year around, and maybe training a little more during the winter. I dont mind the cold weather much. I wear shorts year round and that includes when im biking. As long as I keep my hands and feet warm, not much can stop me in terms of weather.
