My cheap rear light was dead this morning (and in the past 1/2 hr since I've been at work, it doesn't seem to be charging so it might be really dead) so I rode on the sidewalks but I only encountered two people; one person who was standing in a bus shelter and one walker who heard my studded tires and moved aside (we exchanged "Good morning") so I wasn't interfering with anyone.

The actual temperature was -13C/9F, the weathernetwork.com says that it "felt like" -20C/-4F, I thought it felt like -40, there must have been more humidity in the air than the past couple of mornings because it really felt cold on exposed skin of the face.

I have to start biking more and more now, spring will be coming (at these temperatures, it would still seem to be far off) and I have a big charity ride in September that I need to ensure that I am ready for. I know that it is a way off but I'm fretting about it already.

Have a great day everyone!
