I increase running in the Winter as well. Love to run the trails with a nice snow dusting. Have been able to do that just one day this Winter.

Not complaining: I was out two days ago in my (Christmas gift) Discovery Channel shorts and short sleeve jersey kit in 64 degree weather. Felt great to be in summer gear again.

Complaining: While the occasional warmer day this time of year is inevitable, the regular and average occurrence of them are indicative of a change in the climate that is going to have far-reaching implications, and I fear it is too late to stop it from happening.

More complaining: There were freaking insects flying around that I had to clamp my mouth closed to keep from swallowing. In January. That's just wrong...

Weird weather for sure. My cycling partner has lived on the same neighborhood for most of his life in front of a lake. Says he has never seen the lake not fully frozen by this time of the year. It's been bitter cold this time of the years for the past few Winters I've lived here. IMO although the World has passed through warming cycles in the past, we have accelerated it this time exponentially. There's too much hype on this subject though...

Strap your auger onto your rack and join us at the Monona Bay circus.

Ice fishing? Saw a bunch of them yesterday by the Vilas area...

With all the lies about man made global warming its hard to figure out what is the truth is. And you can go into all the carbon credits b.s. Once again it looks like a wall street scam in that regards.

There are so many inaccuracies and so much apparant misunderstanding about how science actually works in this post, there can be no reply. It would be like trying to explain the plot of a Christopher Nolan film to an alien...

In the high 60s here in SoCal, perfect riding weather....except the wind is ruining everything :(

You must be a scientist travelerman. And iam an alien, what the the heck is Al Gore. Oh hes the one who invented the internet.

Take it to P&R where they tolerate, nay relish arguing nonsensical, uninformed, and rhetoric filled viewpoints...

I wondered when someone would start flapping like this. :rolleyes:

edit: just wanted to add in case it was not clear, I AM teasing....

Why do you hate freedom?

:lol: Hate is such a strong word....

Here, fixed for Hoku....:)

Wall street?? Umm, no it is actually the biggest critics of wall street showing their true colors. Al Gore and his ex hippie ilk are not wall street executives. They hate wall street because of their blind greed. Besides, they are just looking out for the little guy, right?

Ever hear the term "Methinks thou dost protest too much"?

edit: Damn it! You people lead me on a mild rant! ;)

It was 60* and sunny yesterday, so I was so pumped to ride today only to be greeted with a 45* and cloudy day. Ahh well, better than a frigid winter!

This would make the Monsignor happy and I did have a shorter homily. I did manage to run 7.5 miles early and then after the 11:30 mass I rode an easy 20 mile ride it was 38 degrees. Now I am having a beer probably another one too, a toast to the good weather.

It ain't here either...8hrs and 210kms this weekend...

75, sunny, light wind, both days this weekend.

Thank god winter ends here in a few weeks.

Nice, but that extreme heat you guys get in Florida in Summer. At least you get to ride all year.

You guys are having about the same weather as us folks down in North Alabama. We've been drowning in rain the past month or so; I haven't been on my bike in ages.

Average day time high in the hottest month of the year is 89 degrees. With a Sea breeze and an ocean to jump into afterwards, that's not so bad.

Interior of Florida is another story.
