New Year Eve :)

Happy New Year to all of you!!

I've been reading the thread and though I've never had a problem not being able to get out and ride in the winter here I have to say that sometimes it is just toooooo hot for riding. Such as yesterday where it was meant to get to 43C. Being a fatty boom bah I suffer terribly in the heat so I missed riding for the last day of 2010. However I have just clocked up a 50km ride this morning as temps are a bit more manageable today. And what a fabulous year 2011 is going to be!!!

Happy 2011 to all.

I got out early this morning to beat the heat - it's 37 degrees Celsius here in Canberra today (that's almost 99 degrees farenheit for all you non-metrics). So just a short ride of 26 kms around our lake (16 miles) before escaping home to air conditioning.

And I almost got attacked by a snake! It was on the path with its head raised and as I approached it slithered off the path back into the grass. Phew!

Pootler - you did much better with 50 kms today - how's the temp in Adelaide?
