Cold but Beautiful

December 8,2009.

What a day! Today was the first real cold day where I had to put on all my winter clothes. It was worth it. I had two shirts and a warm wind breaker. Had winter gloves and ear band. Warm tights, socks and neoprene booties to insure that my feet were warm. The temperature was in the high 30s to low 40s. But I did not have a cold spot on my body. The wind blew hard out of the north but it did not penetrate my clothes.

It was good to get outside after 4 days of riding the bike indoors. Hopefully I will get at least a day or two a week to go outside as we now enter the winter months. I rode at 11:30 and the traffic was light and it was a pleasure. That makes 9 sraight days of riding. Tomorrow I will take the day off from riding, get a massage and then put in some long miles on the weekend.

Distance: 35 miles
Time: 2:15
