Mid 30's and windy when I rode. Only 19 miles.

It's just too damn cold and slush/ice all over the roads here. High of 29F predicted tomorrow, but- wind chill factor will be -4F

And in Texas I wore sleeveless on January 3rd. I have nightmares about the type of weather the rest of you endure this time of year!
35.08 windy miles (average 18, gusting to 25+) but a gorgeous, balmy 80 degrees outside. We carefully planned a route that maximized the tailwind home. DH still left me in the dust even with bruises all over and a nasty cut on the left nakle we were concerned with re-opening but didn't bandage because it needed air.
Did I mention he whined about his chest being bruised and head hurting from the wreck he had yesterday?

WINDY, mid 40's, rode 42 miles. Half with a head wind or fierce cross winds, but the way back was FUN!!! We flew down the road. It was great!

Ugh... Trainer again this am! Still snowing here and quite a bit on the roads. No shoulder to ride on anywhere, and stupid drivers. Scary stuff!!!!

I logged about 30km... 10 on my TT bike, but my back I had hurt didn't ease, so I got my Femetape, but after 200m it had a flat tire... so then I got my road race bike and gave him a steady 20km on the road...

43 miles, 34 degrees w/a starting windchill of 30 (went lower as ride progressed). Unfortunately, humidity was high so it was that damp, bonechilling type of cold.
