Did a hilly 14 mile ride yesterday, before our Chanukah guests arrived. Weirdly, it was only 2 degrees warmer than yesterday, but it felt much warmer. I was a bit overdressed, but same scenario as yesterday, took off the head cover and glove liners, and dealt with it.
I have so much eating this week... last night, and tomorrow is my anniversary and we are going to a really great farm to table restuarant that is extremely hard to get into. Then Wednesday is my bike group's Chanukah party. I am planning on riding before the eating, but there is also an alternate hike. The past 2 years I've hiked, but it's not that fun of a hike, and the group goes too slowly for me. I've ridden at this party when it used to be up in Portsmouth, NH, and we would ride along the coast. For the past few years, it's been very close to where I live, which is nice, but I've let the cold weather give me an excuse.
