"The 33"-Road Bike Racing - The Weather Thread

What kind of ridiculousness is this? It is October 27 and it is snowing in Boston. October 27!!!!!!!!! Ok, so, it won't be around too long. Still, ridiculous. Oh, I don't know if this thread has legs. Just felt right, at least for the moment, because this is unacceptable. (Plus, my wife just returned from a few days of playing in the ATX with a bunch of friends and I am longing for that place and its October-November weather, and other stuff too -- thank goodness she brought back some real salsa!! I prefer Taco Deli red, but, she surprised me with Torchys red. Not bad, not bad at all.)

wtf

Bike riding in snow is not yet on my radar for this season!!

Hail & snow here too for a little while :(

67º here this morning. No need for base layers / arm warmers / knee warmers at worlds last night.

No snow north of the border...Just coolness...Did a nice snot filled ride in 3C temps yesterday evening...Toes and hands were nicely chilled by the time we got home!

And so it begins :)

Looks like the weekend will be sporadically wet here, but no snow!

wtf

Exactly. I agree... a thread for the weather now?

Because we need one more.

Right now: Controversial if we're talking about Sociometric status.

I'm losin' status at the high school
I used to think that it was my school . . .
BOW WOW WOW WOW!
I was the king of every school activity
But that's no more . . . oh mama!
What will come of me?

The other night we painted posters
They played some records by the Coasters
BOW WOW WOW WOW!
A bunch of pom-pom girls looked down their nose at me.
They had painted tons of posters; I had painted three.
I hear the secret whispers everywhere I go
My school spirit is at an all-time low . . . BLA-A-A-A!

I'm losing status at the high school
I used to think that it was my school . . .
BOW WOW WOW WOW!
Everyone in town knows I'm a hand-some football star
I sing & dance & spray my hair & drive a shiny car
I'm friendly & I'm charming . . . I belong to De Molay
I'm gonna try like mad to get my status back today!
Status back baby
Status back baby
Status back baby
Status back baby

52 overcast with rain on the way.

I never thought you would be the one to initiate something so inane.

Unless this is in response to the weather thread, in which case I applaud your mockery.

51 degrees at 6:30am this morning. I forgot toe covers. I was sad.

Don't limit it to just defecation, just make a "Gastro-Intestinal Status" thread which can cover all associated pleasantries. On a similar note I'd like to have a "Status Status" thread where we can update ourselves on which status threads we've posted in, for the lazy readers of course because it is the off season.

Trust someone from boston to make a thread about the weather.

Mockery can be the finest form of flattery.

Cool, I didn't know that merges could be done!!

Nor'easter supposedly coming tomorrow night. I don't want to be on the trainer yet.

When I get done there will be one thread in the racing forum.

nice.

Hammy, I hadn't noticed your signature before. Now I understand the fascination.

so I should change it to 'crapping buddhist'?

gstein told me I was a crappy buddhist for my love of cats, so it stuck.

Let's hope no one mentions Nabisco or double-stuff as I like your Location-listing in its current state.

clap. clap.

Oh, the irony as we are all having one big biking love-in here, now, in the weather thread.

It's snowing in Boston? Now that's just crazy.

What's next, sun in Floriduh?

:notamused:eff off

It rained here the other day, did I mention that?

Matt, those comments are not going to help you get those 7 points that you need.

It's only been a couple of hours so far

I've been working on my impersonation skills: Sheesh, it's Connecticut; what's the surprise there.

Matt, those comments are not going to help you get those 7 points that you need.

lol - actually I want to get 30 points before upgrading, so I can hit the ground running in the 2's.

At 25 points I guess I'll reach sandbagger status, which may come in handy for our flooding issues. Or when the snow melts out there, hit me up!

As an aside, reasonably good chance my bike and I will make our way to SeaTac and surroundings at some point in the Spring :-)

I would just like to mention the north of the border...In Hamilton at least...It's raining right now, but was beautifully sunny this morning and no SNOW!!!

Of course our time will come :)

Hang in there to the folks without power!! I've had my nose down and away from most of the news. I am surprised by how many folks are still without power.

Awesome!

I'll try to clear out the bad whether for your arrival..

If it's in April you can do the weekly races (Seward & PIR), or in March you can come play in a real race.
