Now I'm really glad I went for a ride, however brief, yesterday.
According to the weather forecast, there's more on the way--snow, wind and cold. In fact, absolute temperatures of near O degrees F, and wind-chill temperatures of -20F are predicted for the wee hours of tomorrow morning.
I don't think it's been so cold in at least a couple of years. That, in and of itself, wouldn't deter me from riding. But with winds gusting to 60MPH (100 KPH)--at times blowing the snow horizontally--I don't feel much incentive to go out. In fact, I'm not sure I'd ride even if I had a mountain or fat-tire bike.
I'm such a sissy, right?

Nothing wrong with being prudent! I'm with you regarding staying safer by leaving the bike at home until conditions improve.
ReplyDeleteHi Annie--Thank you for your encouragement. Had I been younger (and my old self), I probably would have been more worried about being a "sissy".
