Nice day for a ride today, but MAN OH MAN! was it COLD along the creek! It was low 50s when I left the house, so I had a long sleeve jersey and base layer, vest, bibs and knee warmers and I was fine, till I got to the road along the creek. According to my Garmin it was 45, which I can readily believe. I ended up curling my fingers into my palms as I rode, since I usually don't go for full finger gloves till it's below 50. Brrrrrrrrrr!!

Of course, later I was sweating, so off came the vest. I think the temp range was 45-70 degrees.

I often don't know why I choose a particular bike on a particular day, but today it was Mrs. Peel's turn. As mehitabel the cat would say, "theres a dance or two in the old dame yet". I didn't throw down any 1000W sprints, but I didn't treat her like she's fragile either.
