How far to you have to ride to work Gunnen?
I have about 6 miles and the coldest I've ridden was about 26 degrees.

These days, only 2 miles or so to campus. A year ago, it was 5 miles to campus, which I did for a couple of years, and before that, it was roughly four miles I had to ride on base to get from Barracks to Motor Pool.

Coldest I have ridden in was -2F. Hottest was 117F.

The kids in Norway don't go to school when it hits -15C so my friend tells me- but then most older kids actually stay at school Monday to Friday and go home at weekends- so I guess it's the little ones she is talking about like her nephew who is 6 -

Yea, when conditions suck, I just wear more clothes, proper gear, or something. Also:

Today was really nice, extremely unseasonal though. 50F or there abouts for the middle of January. Something isn't right. I recall the first weeks of December were fucking horribly frigid. Anyhow, only wore a thin fleece pullover to ride today.


RE: The Completely Pointless Thread II - Twitchin Kitten - 01-17-2014

The weather is backwards Gunnen. We have the frigid temps here in the east and they came too early for this area, but not unusual. Some shit about some "polar vortex" which I find to be bullshit. It's winter. The weather is shit. End of story.


RE: The Completely Pointless Thread II - twisteroo - 01-17-2014

Shit.....now I gotta put the rack on my mountain bike and start riding that fucker to work. It's only January. Fuck. Bicycle[Image: tounge10.gif]


RE: The Completely Pointless Thread II - Gunnen4u - 01-17-2014

That's the spirit. Embrace the cold. Harden the fuck up. Ride.
