4. The fact that cold can cause parts of the bicycle to freeze up or not run as smoothly, more friction
Thanks,
Most of that is what I thought. Is there anything to do with muscles? It seems like my muscles never warm up when it is could either. I have two bikes a Ti and a 853 Reynolds steel and the Ti is always a better ride, but it seems like the Steel bike this time of the year is like riding a tank. Maybe it is just not as stiff or responsive is all that is.
Anyway thanks for your quick response.
By the way I looked at you website and some of the rides you do. You need to come East and do some of the rides over this way. There are some really good ones like Bike VA, Cycle NC And Brat (Bike ride across TN) as well as BRAG (Bicycle ride across GA)
