I still think some of you guys are superhuman, with 3 layers on the torso at -30 degrees. As for riding on top of snow how do you do that? The minute I hit black ice, I'm off. People panic if we get significant snow where I live. We probably get 2-3 snows per year. Some years, it hasn't snowed at all.
By unseasonably cold: What temps have you had? How does that compare with the norm for your town? People complain about the cold if it i)gets below 30F at night, ii) doesn't get above 40 during the day. That said, summers here are prone to crapiness. The average August high was in the 60's this year, and there was rain or showers over half of days. Half the dry days were overcast. The normal July/ August high is 72. I seem to get very little variation. People panic when it gets over 80.
