Hi, my name is Marcie and I'm a weather wimp. It has been 5 days since I've riden in temperatures above 50.

I'm going to will the mercury in the thermometer to 50 today so I can at least get in 15 miles. Tomorrow is looking good. I hope to ride here at home, pack the bike and head into Louisville to join the evening club ride.

Silver, buzz on down and we can get a few miles in before the rain moves in Wednesday.

Silver, and anyone else dealing with these way-below-normal temps: I feel your pain. I road last Monday in a sleeveless top. Yesterday, I has my warmest gear on, plus feet and hand warmers--and I was still cold. I just had to get out there though. I managed only 32 miles at the CIBA ride (where only about 15 brave souls showed up) before giving into the cold. They say you should "ride the temperature" so I'm okay with it. I'm going back out there today and tomorrow though, before the rain and wind sidelines me again. Don't the weather gods know I have mileage goals to consider?

I've been incredibly bummed out by the weather, too. The other day I got fully dressed in cycling gear and just couldn't ride. It was too cold and too windy (and if I had ridden, I would have been riding in a heavy snow because it started 20 minutes after I bagged the ride). And it's supposed to rain Thursday during my women's running/walking program -- again. UGH!!!

Let's go sunshine!
