Thanksgiving Rides Planned?

[Catrin]

Any riding planned for today? I am keeping a close eye on the weather and deciding if I will ride inside or outside today. I am tempted to wait until after dinner (which is at 1:30) and ride at 4 which is the warmest part of the day. Perhaps I won't eat too much if I know I am going to be getting on the bike later...

Our guests aren't arriving until 2:30 and we will eat at 4 or so. I am planning to ride around 11 for 1-2 hours. Everything is done, DH will set the timer for the oven to start cooking the turkey. The only thing that will stop me is the black ice that is out there now has not melted! It's 30 degrees now and will be in the 40s by 11. The key is that the sun is shining.

Sounds awesome! It is 40 degrees here now, but quite foggy and damp. I think that I am going to ride the trainer this morning, make cookies to take with me, and then ride for pleasure after dinner. It is supposed to be over 50 by 4:00, so hope to be on the bike shortly after 3:30 but will have to see. Tomorrow they are calling for 60 degrees, I will take it

This will be my first time on the bike outside in two weeks, so hoping to see some improvement with my neck!

Hoping for a two hour ride after I make another pie. Denver is having unseasonably warm weather so by 10 am, we're looking at 54 deg and 8 mph winds. Yeah!

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Yesterday my weather app said it was going to be over 50 by mid morning....now it says until noon. So I will wait maybe until 11:30 a.m.. My dinner is not until 4 and we ussually spend the rest of the evening with the family. So I will have to take it at least before 1:30.. plus I think they have NFL games all day long and I believe my fave team since I was a kid is playing today ....the SF 49ERS.

Catrin....lets see if one day the indy TE members could meet and ride together. It would be nice.

Did a nice beach and gravel road ride this morning - 12 miles. 80F and sunny. Ah Belize!

Not cooking -- we'll be eating dinner in town later. Even though Thanksgiving is not celebrated here, many of the restaurants are doing t-day dinners for the tourists and expats.

Happy Thanksgiving all!

We did the flattest (not saying much) ride out the door, 16.5 miles. One small hill in the beginning and then the climb back up to my house. It was 38 when we started and 42 when we got home; I was overdressed, but my Gore jacket has pit zips, so between unzipping those, and unzipping the jacket and my mid layer, it was tolerable. It's very sunny out and there were lots of cyclists and runners out, doing the same thing as me!
Now to make myself look presentable. Turkey is almost done cooking.
