COLD COLD DAY here in central FL., temp in the mid 40s all day, so the daughter and I only got out for 25 miles this afternoon. Stopped at Applebees in Heathro for a cold Sam Adams (2), and chips and dip and watched the Buc's loose to Atlanta, and then rode home before dark. Tomorrow is supposed to be colder so I think I will stay in by the fire. 0 Gopher Tortoises today 0 Sandhill cranes 25.38 (s)miles today 90.96 (s)miles this month 90.96 (s)miles this year 3 ride day(s) this month (Jan.) http://www.bikeforums.net/attachment...471837&thumb=1 Mileage goal T/Y 7500 miles Mileage needed to hit goal 7409.04 |
Mids forties, Ha!
I wussed because of forecasted low-sub 30's from 0630-1130, and not to forget the windchill. I need to set up my garage with my trainer/rollers. Felt odd not riding today. And of course I know there are places that get it worse than we do. |
Frostbite warnings on the morning news but it was above freezing and mostly sunny downtown?? When I was a kid, it had to go to negative numbers before anyone noticed. I skied in colder conditions Saturday. If it's not too cold for downhill skiing, it's not too cold for biking. Biker generated more heat and experiences less wind chill. The roads were dry and I was comfortable in two base layers and a windbreaker.

Fourth morning with a freeze and more to come. It may even get creep out of the 40's by thursday before hitting us for round 2 for the rest of the week.
01:23:27 - 21.19m - 15.2 avmph - 73 avrpm - 21 mxmph - 32 F temp - 10- mph winds |
I have not ridden since before Christmas! Besides the cold (for me anyway!), I got sick a few days before Christmas and have not gotten over it yet. Finally broke down and went to the doctor today, hopefully all the drugs will get me back to normal (or what passes for normal in my case!). The thing that really ticks me off is that I never made 3,000 miles, I only needed a few days of riding to do it! GRRRRR!

Another sub 30's morning, gotta go work on my garage.

Boatdesigner, enjoy the drugs, see you when the weather breaks! Haha.
Another beautiful day in DC, lots of sun, refreshingly breezy. |
Like Droobie said another sub 30 day in Florida.

I forgot my jacket today. Brrr, thank God for GoreTex underwear!

January 8, 9, 10, 11 no to cold January 12, yes nice day Temp in the low 50s today, so I got out for 29+ miles this afternoon. Tomorrow is supposed to be warmer so I think I will try to get in a long ride day. Interesting ride today, on my return ride I started to see police cars at all of the intersection then 2 helicopters started buzzing overhead, one police one TV channel, then police cars were driving up and down the bike trail. I stopped at the county softball complex to see what was going on and was informed that someone was in the area with an assault rifle. Don't know if that was true but there sure was a lot of police activity in the area. Rode on home and didn't get shot. 0 Gopher Tortoises today 5 Sandhill cranes 0 Deer 29..29 (s)miles today 151.35 (s)miles this month 151.35 (s)miles this year 5 ride day(s) this month (Jan.) http://www.bikeforums.net/attachment...471837&thumb=1 |
