Freak "cold" front in Texas today... Cold by my standards anyway, but I thought of you poor people snowed in still in the north country, and rode anyways. But I did get to wear my Mapei arm warmers

today sucked. not sure it got above freezing and the wind chill (40MPH gusts) was around 15. But I've lived in Texas, so this august, enjoy your 45th straight day of over 100 degrees F.

This morning it was incredibly muggy though. Like stepping out of a sauna. You could almost poor yourself a glass of air and drink it.

I'll have to post pictures from my commute yesterday when I get back home. Think snow, and a lot of it.

I would love to have it in the 60's here in Ohio. My ride on Tuesday was in the upper 70's (78 I think) and then on Wednesday, it is in the 30's with snow.

Ah, Winter-peg. It's a balmy -5C (23 Fahrenheit) in Toronto right now and snowing lightly, with a nice little layer of ice on most flat surfaces. Love that trainer hum...

It was 24F this morning, and we're going to hit 36F, or so I hear. 60F is cold? Ha!
Maybe sometime next week it will warm up...
