high 20s; broke out the ski gloves; balaclava; skin wax and wore full tights over the bike shorts and under the rain/wind pants. I broke down and applied the last of my expensive reflective tape on my expensive pants. this weekend I lubed my brake cables because I thought they were getting sticky. I should done the shift cables cuz this am due to low temps and wet conditions last night I could not use my rear derailer - had to stop twice to manual tug on the cables and derailer back and forth to free it up. no-doubt it hurt my time. oh well, lesson learned. switched from steady light to strobe 1/2 way to work. still magic for my Magic Shine to arrive - maybe today? riding again Thursday, so just 3 days this week. low temps next week maybe I will wear snow pants over bike shorts and skip the tights/wind pants combo. of course that means more tape ...!
