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.
Got more miles than degrees on the thermometer yesterday! Started out at 22 degrees with a windchill of 14, ended 32 miles later with a temperature of 28 and a windchill of 20. I still had a good ride despite the cold and will be doing so again today.
