Cold, very cold. Thankfully I made some equipment upgrades last night -- heavy duty gloves and a balaclava. My hands were actually warm when I got into work (normally they're cold, numb, and in pain) and the balaclava did the job quite nicely (although one of the lenses on my glasses fogged up a bit when I was going slow).

I proved to myself this morning that I can handle pretty much any kind of cold that this area can throw at me. Unfortunately, there was a 25 mph headwind for a good part of the way, made me work hard on those flats. Unless it changes in the next 1.5 hours -- that'll be a tailwind back home though
