Been windy and cold the past couple of days. More like normal. Yesterday the temps dropped during the day so I carried a mid layer for the ride home into the 15-20 mph headwinds. Eased the effort to keep from sweating too much and my clothing choices were perfect. The icearmor gloves were on the warm side so I took them off to cool the hands some. Glad for the studs after having to ride over a lot of ice.

The wind howled all night which was a bit foreboding. 20 mph tail/cross winds for the ride in at 19 degrees. Wore the mid layer again was actually a bit too warm so I had to back off the effort to keep the sweating down. Toes got cold at the end so I'll up the thickness of the wool socks. If that doesn't work tomorrow I'll breakout the muck boots. Big and clunky but should be warm.
