Roads were dry, sun was out, light winds, and temp of 26 degreesF, so DH and I went out after breakfast for a 2 hour ride, 21 miles.
Managed to keep warm though our fingers still got a bit cold. Our water in our water bottles wound up half frozen. Too cold to drink for me- made me colder all over, and my teeth hurt!Next time I'll heat my water before we go out. DH's steel water bottle froze closed.
Glad I started the ride having drunk lots of water already.
Aside from a little coldness in fingers and toes, and my glasses giving me an ice cream headache, we were warm enough generally.
Pretty ride. I could tell that 3 weeks of less activity has slowed me down a bit, so it was good to shake those muscles awake and remind them they will eventually be called into action again!![]()
