Hi all,

I was fortunate enough to get out today for 65 miles in 50 degree weather. We had our "normal" wind of steady 15mph with gusts to 25 according to NWS--the northbound leg of my route was a real treat ;-)

I'm a regular commuter--the shorts and jersey were a great change from my usual "Nanok of the North" cycling gear.

Here's the route I rode: http://veloroutes.org/bikemaps/?route=479

Anybody else from Cheyenne or surrounding area interested in doing a long ride once a month or so? I've got quite a list of good rides lined up. Today's ride took 4:15 as an indication of my normal speed.

You Wyoming guys are tougher in the cold than me, I need 65 before I will put on the Pearl Izumis.
