Sorta hurt my feelings but my response:
Thanks for the note.

There are people that commute every day of the year, rain or shine. Take a look at the forum and the pictures of the web site I have linked to you before. That is what is great about riding. It doenst need to be a summer sport. It can be done all year around. Look at the commuters with the WCBC and BCP. People who ride all year long. Two GIRLS that work at Campbells ride all year long because they dont own a car. There would only be one decision if you didnt have a car and that would be to ride.

Heck, I enjoy it. Understand that I am not riding my road bike in weather like this but my mtn bike commuter, it is pretty neat and I love the challenge. What is fun is getting there and the journey. Whats fun is when people look at you like you are crazy. I dont care. It is fun for me. Plus it is great excersise.

Take a look at this thread:

It might give you some understanding.

Would this type of riding be good for the weekend? Not really. Maybe it wouldnt be fun.... maybe it would be. For me its about getting out. ITs about the journey and getting to the finish. I love it Jim. "
