Working a 1/2 day today then heading to DC for the weekend. No riding, but it's a wedding that has been postponed for a year already, so I am willing to skip a ride or two in order to celebrate with my family. It's my sister's older son who is getting hitched. BTW my sister has made a good (not quite 100%, but good enough) recovery from her brain injury that happened this spring.
fun fact: only vaccinated guests are allowed at the wedding. They are not joking.

I miss more rides in the winter because of icy runoff on the roads rather than the temperature.

PSA: Throw away your unlabeled onions.
You're welcome.

my wife says this is unreasonable. I didn’t realize we ate that many onions.

same here.
I don’t mind riding in the winter. MUPs are empty, seems like less traffic, and a lot less cyclist out.
Only thing I dislike, my riding time is extremely limited, and it’s dark.
I don’t know if it’s my gear or if it’s just normal, but I can only ride for about 90 mins 32 and below. Once I start to sweat it’s game over.

My wife said we already ate half of the bag of onions from Wegmans, since no symptoms we are going to take our chances and keep them.

I need to get a descent light weight jacket. All I have is a heavy thermal which I never wear and three wind breakers. One wind breakers has no venting, the other two do, But I find all three trap heat. They are also all big on my now. I lost even more weight and now they flap into the wind.
Manager at trek recommended the gore tec shake dry (this might be wrong). for a rain jacket, I’m not sure what would make a good light weight winter jacket.
I have a tendency to over heat.

It’s a Rail, a King Rail, common in the southeast. I was impressed Jonesy made that connection.

When it starts getting cold, a vest is my first grab. Having 3 more pockets is important when clothes are being added and removed.
