Coldest commute I've done yet... 23F. I've finally decided wireless cyclocomputers are sh1t. I've put my old wired computer back on, but left the wireless on just to see how bad it is. It froze up this morning after about 15 mins and didn't give a reading after that.

This old wired computer is great. It's a Trek Radar. Has temp and time on the bottom, speed on top in big letters, and then in the middle you can switch between distance, ride time, odometer, max speed, and average speed. If it had a backlight, it would be the PERFECT computer for commuting IMO.

Being this was the coldest temp I've ridden in, I figured out I need one more layer on my head. I had a balaclava on and a headsweat thing on top of that. I was just at tad cold on my head. I think I might get a stocking cap... pearl izumi has a good one.

I also found out my shoes with booties don't cut it. I even had on two socks. Toes were frozen when I got to work. I had already ordered some winter shoes (Northwave Grizzlies) so I'll be happy when those arrive.

Does anyone else find it annoying to have several layers on their legs? I wear my bib shorts, leg warms, and then a pair of heavy duty tights... and I just hate having those tights on, but I can't go without.

First time in my life the water in my water bottle froze...
