Man, it was sure was cold this winter season (i.e. only the month of Jan). Overnight temps dropped to the mid '40's and once in a while the upper '30's. Daytime temps were high '60's. But now we Los Angelenos have had overnight temps in the '50's and daytime temps in the '80's. I guess having 1 bad month of weather out of the year isn't so bad. Now I can commute every day.

How's the weather out there in Phoenix? I know it gets extremely hot in the summer. When does the cold winter weather end for you guys?

It's snowing here!

I just prepped my bike to begin commuting. There was only a couple of inches of snow on the ground, and it was all of about 30 degrees. I figure as long as it's not raining, I'll be riding...

Bah, neither you nor your bike melt, man up and ride

You're kidding right?

You guys are so lucky.......

No way, bro. It was 87* today. I'm preparing my cycling clothes for tomorrow morning and am putting away my winter clothes (tights + UnderArmor) until next Jan and threw my sunscreen in my pannier.

I was out playing tennis today in shorts and a T-shirt in Fort Collins, Colorado (30 miles from Cheyenne, Wyoming).

Sounds like a post I read a month or so ago from someone in south Florida who said he was on the trainer because 60F was too cold for riding.

`Well over here in San Jose, it was pretty warm. Yesterday I was sweating buckets. Looks like I wont need a Jacket today...

Oh man, I just rolled into the office today and it's bright, sunny, and over 60*. Just wearing my bike shorts and jersey. It must really suck for you snow-people.

We can't help it if you are season challenged.
Sun burn yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Where's the spice?

It must really suck for you climate handicapped people.

I biked to work this morning as the sun was beginning to rise through the gray haze. It was about 15 degrees F outside. Fortunately, there was only about 4mph wind to deal with. It's beardsicle weather!

I was commuting from Rancho Cucamonga to L.A. in 40 degree weather ... on a motorcycle.

I wish I was commuting in L.A. in the mid 40's here in PA ... road conditions now makes cycling for me prohibitive due the risk of getting run over.

I do not exactly love you ....you .... you .... taunter!!

Yo dude, today's high again was 87*. I tell you it's so beautiful outside! We need to keep all of the doors and windows open at night to cool off.

I guess this is what you northeast commuters are doing these days:

Don't gloat too much. Tomorrow the highs go back to upper 50s to mid 60s with lows in the lower to mid 40s.

I know that must sound warm as heck to a lot of you, but you should see the way people dress like it is below freezing to ride when it is partly cloudy and 55F around here.

It was 24°F at my house this morning, and thursday afternoon it should be 62°F.

Now, what is the problem with riding at different temps?

DataJunkie

Try 60F today and 8F as a low tomorrow. The high is something like 25F tomorrow.
Perfect riding temps

I'd gloat too, but I seem to remember way too many days of 100 degrees, 99% humidity during the summer. Yay global warming? It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't commute on asphalt most of the way. Last summer, I got sidewall cracking on my Paselas, most probably from excessive heat, because I certainly never over- or under-inflate them. Happened to both tires.
