On a run on an especially crispy cold day recently I told my running partner 'I wish they made mittens for my lungs'.

'It's called a vest', she replied.

My nearly-absent boobs are fine on rides, but my booty always gets really cold. I don't feel it when I'm on the bike, it's just when I get home that my butt cheeks are ice-cold!!!

Typical random thoughts on my ride:


Should have worn the warmer gloves...

That car is going to turn right in front of me, I just know it...yup there they go...

Is it too late yet for eggs at Ralph's Cafe?...

Was that a dead leaf or a dead chipmunk?...

Yeah buddy, why don't you pass me a couple inches CLOSER...

Man I LOVE these wool tights...

What the hell IS that little rattling back there anyway... if I don't get rid of it I'm going to go NUTS ....

This may well be my last ride of the season...

Downhill coming up....here we go...wheeee!

Should have peed before I left Ralph's...

Those girls aren't wearing helmets I wonder if their parents know or care...I can't believe they are swerving all over the road like that...OMG that one's on a cell phone!...

OK 4th hill down, 3 more to go...

I'm not going to beat my time on this ride either...

Should have worn the warmer gloves...

Jaaaannnnnn Kirsipu. Kirsipooooooo. Kirsipoo. KIIIIRRRR-si-puu.


(I was watching the 2003 tour before I left this morning. I just liked the way Phil Liggett pronounced his name.)

During DMD last year it was Danilo DiLuca that I kept repeating.

Mine it the big German, himself...Jan Ullrich.
As in (doing my best PL imitation): "The Big German has popped!" only I substitute "The Big Pole has popped! There she goes...off the back!"

My random thoughts while riding:

Brrr, I'm freezing
Nice day, though
Ooh, my back is tight
Hands are starting to warm up
Sally, slow down--I'm huffing and puffing over here
Ooh, a bunny
Mmm, back feels looser
Oh yeah, you're a big strong man because you startled a lone woman on a bike with your half-ton of steel--coward!
Ooh, tailwind

Usually these thoughts are interspersed with strains of song--and it's usually the most inane thing there is, like "yummy yummy yummy I got love in my tummy," or something equally barf-inducing. Where does this stuff come from?

To warm your boobs ---

1. Put on sports bra.
2. Put chemical hand or toe warmer into thin sock.
3. Place sock with warmer into bra.
4. Warmer AND bigger boobs. All set to ride. ;-)

Thoughts while riding:

How cool to be riding in January!
If I ride today, I can eat. Yay!
My car is sitting at home. I love that.
Applause for being pre-menopausal - my hands and toes are NOT freezing.
I COULD be hiking instead......

hehe, dirty mind

yeppers, it's silver, I'm at 50 miles total now.

I'm going to try a higher cut sport bra tomorrow. I didn't think it would matter since it was the first layer of 4 layers. But some of the hand warmers would be nice!!!

[Triskeliongirl]

I'm going to try a higher cut sport bra tomorrow.

When its cold, instead of my usual sports bra, I wear a full length sport top w built in bra, like the Nike Dri Fit tops made to wear without a shirt. Then I layer a thin wicking shirt, a long sleeve jersy, and sometimes vest (thin or thick depending on temps). Keep that core warm, and your boobs will stay warm too!

Actually that's what I was wearing. A Nike long top, Under armour cold weather turtleneck, thick vest and then a Nike fleece pullover. It's just that the Nike sport bra top was lower cut. I have another that is higher cut. I wore it today and I did much better.

That's a LOT of layers. The most I'll add is a goretex jacket, but never a fleece pulllover. How cold was it?

[silver]

LOL!!! I'm a cold weather WEENIE!!!! About 40 degrees with 15 mph wind, partly cloudy. Each of these layers are relatively thin.

The Nike pullover is not exactly fleece. I don't know what to call it. It's a sphere fleece if you've ever seen that. The vest is one of those Chili salsa vests. It's like the underarmour fabric but a little thicker.

I was raised in the South and the cold here in Indiana really gets to me....and it's Southern Indiana
