I am back after 2 and 1/2 weeks in Barbados, and it was paradise. Cycling is noticeably increased this year in Barbados, but without helmets and lights for the most part. Gas is a bit higher, $2.42 (BBD) a liter, which is about $4 (USD) a gallon. The ride in was easy and warmer at 30 F (-1 C). I was over dressed, but with 6 ft snow banks in places, it felt colder.
