Halloween rides! (Daily ride thread)

I didn't go costumed either. I did hill training today. Think I'm improving, until I looked at my previous times on Bikejournal.com. The janitor here is dressed like Rocky Balboa. I've got a complete Timex/Cannondale kit at home, But i'm not sure if the office is ready for purple shorts Had just a little bit of sun for once.

I already posted about my morning ride as a witch in the commuting section. It was a total blast! Didn't talk about the temp though. The official low was 17 but the temp at our house was in the single digits when I left for work. I stayed warm except for my feet which were total numb when I got to work.

Ah well, I get to do it all over again this afternoon. At least the temp has warmed up! It almost 35 degrees! bikerHen

And I thought I was cold this morning riding to work - have to admit my bare face and my very covered hands got pretty cold today and it was probably around 28!

Wow, we had a beautiful warm sunny Indian Summer day today in upstate NY! It was gorgeoous sunny, breezy, and 55-65 degrees today! I only wore my orange smartwool thin merino hoodie and my long Shebeest Tech tights (both from TE!). No base layers needed for a change.
DH and I played hookie from work and went out for breakfast followed by a 25 mile ride to the health food farm store. Lots of hills, but they didn't seem as bad to me as they used to. At the store, I had a big bowl of miso broth with carrots and spinach- GOOD biking fuel. Got home and adjusted my saddle, then cleaned up the dead garden a bit before getting back to work this afternoon and evening.
It was really a wonderful day.

Took advantage of the 65 degree day here in MA. I took my bike to school and brought my clothes, etc yesterday. I was out on the bike at around 2:50 and got back around 3:55. Perfect for this time of year. Even if I rush home and don't help any kids after school, I might have 45 minutes of daylight left. This way, i was able to get in a 17 mile ride from Hudson into Bolton, Stow, Boxborough, and back. I rode my old commute with an additional 4 miles. I hadn't ridden outside for 5 days, so i felt really strong (maybe the running is helping?). I only used my granny gear on one steep hill, which was amazing.
When I got back to school, the last 3-4 people were leaving and they were amazed to see me rolling in to the parking lot and putting my bike on my car.
Good ride!
