I miss my bike. I'm thinking about going tomorrow morning. Mostly I hate the strong winds we've had lately.
Really, the winds lately are the only problem. The people who complain about temps in the teens have never tried it with appropriate clothing. I did it with a short-sleeved jersey for a base, thin fleece long-sleeve over that, and a thin windbreaker shell. Not too bulky, and I was actually too *hot*.
Now, I do wish the rest of the dang ice on the trail would melt so I can get off the studs.
