Preparing for winter :mad:

[PamNY]

I ride all winter.

I also climb stairs (real stairs; I live in a 32 story building). Also walk a lot. I keep thinking I should do something more interesting, but I haven't thought of anything yet.

I am The. Biggest. Pansy. When it comes to riding in chilly weather. Note, I said "CHILLY" Not cold. Chilly. Below 45, I don't go. It really hurts my throat so bad. Poor lungs run in the family, and I have those, too. I've had pneumonia five times, and I'm not even 35.

I hike a lot in winter. I also found an indoor trainer for this winter (yay!) and am looking at some cool videos to help it be a little more exciting. But I have a few great months of riding left, possibly up to December, before the cold drives me to hike more.

I'm with grey. With temperatures in the 40s, for me it is painful to ride. My muscles get tight, it does not feel good.

Winter: trainer + sufferfest, running. Last winter I signed up for a (running) race at the beginning of April. It was a good incentive to work out. I plan on doing the same this winter.

Swim and lift. Gonna get some huge quads and hammies to help me climb!
