Arielmoon, Dressage rider and bicyclist!? We've gotta talk girl! I feel your pain... no horse and no bike? Whatever will you do?

Too funny Owlice! Exactly how I feel.

I had a pretty good week despite the weather. Two 30 mile solo rides Monday and Tuesday. It was in the 40s both days, and I realized that 40 degrees is perfectly comfortable to ride in without any major wardrobe upgrades. Why do most of my riding buddies stop riding when the temps fall below 55 degrees?

I did a 45 mile ride today with two of my hardier friends. It was 22 degrees to start and 32 degrees to finish. I was perfectly comfortable and I am getting the clothes figured out!
