Today's Ride

Re:

Yeah Longun, when you are dressed for the cold, as soon as you start the day's climb ( around here, anyway - it's all up), It gets hot and sweaty. On those kind of days I wear full zip jerseys, so I can unzip on the climb. Today-Wednesday- A partly overcast 65 F. day. I rode up to the West and climbed 900' or so...

Re:

Today-Friday- Wow, what an amazing day- 75 F. and mostly sunny. That's really warm for this time of year, but I'm not fighting it. Anyway, it's supposed to rain Saturday night and Sunday here... We rode up to the West, to Tamarancho. Lots of riders out, we had a nice chat with two guys originally from South Africa, now local residents. One of them had a belt drive one speed bike, built in Colorado. It was hard to read the name, Reeb, which of course, he said, is beer spelled backwards...

Re:

Today-Wednesday- A bit under the weather this week, so I've been off the bike. However, we did get a well known rider visiting little old Fairfax today. Joe Breeze's son Tommy was hanging out with him downtown at the corner coffee shop...

Re:

Today-Tuesday-The doc says I can't ride my bike until after I get a "procedure" done sometime in the next two weeks. I'm hoping you guys will pick up the slack and post up your rides here to keep me entertained in the meantime ...

Re:

Today-Sunday-It's a beautiful day, about 64 F. and sunny out. We took a hike up the ridge near my house, with views all around. What's happening over the pond? Anybody riding ? Would love to see some pics from you guys...

Mental weather that's what. Coldest night for 10 years in many parts of the UK last night. Snow all over the place last weekend put paid to any action including my Sunday run; it was treacherous underfoot and worst of all, super wet. My feet are still recovering from the Berlin marathon so I'm not looking to fook them up at the moment.

This mornings commute was easily the coldest I've had in a long, long time. It's not often the suburbs of London get that chilly so it meant a much slower, steady and smooth commute. Black ice was everywhere with a complete lack of any salt, grit or other preventative measures.

Meanwhile in central Europe, it's going to reach 18 degrees today
