deep thoughts by billh: Riding in winter is just like riding in summer, except it's cold outside.

Boy it seemed cold today. A water main burst yesterday down the street and we were without water for most of the day. This morning, I think it was 17F. So I was thinking "cold". But it was a beautiful morning. Sunny, blue, crisp. No wind. I was layered perfectly, cruising along to work and thought, "Wow, except for a small patch of skin around my eyes, I'm perfectly toasty warm, it's just like riding in summer, except . . . it's so cold out". Doh. Somehow that seemed to warm me up a little more.
