Here in Western Washington, we're pressing our noses up against the window and waiting for the rain and cold to subside... four months from now.
I would have ridden yesterday if the air wasn't full of smoke from the LA fires. I don't ride as much during winter, but weather like this is rare and I feel compelled to take advantage. I'll probably do a loop around Lake Union and over Queen Anne tonight. The rains are coming back later this week.
Drinking something hot right before you walk out the door helps.
