We have had unseasonably warm weather lately, which makes it good for cycling, but doesn't seem "Christmasy," but I'll adjust! Rode 27 miles on Sunday. It started out in the low 50's and dropped quickly to 44 with some wind chill by the end as the sun dropped. My toes were freezing even with smart wool socks and toe warmers, but I'm a wimp about cold temps. Rode 40 miles yesterday with temps in the low 60's. That is my longest ride since my broken foot in early Sept., and I can definitely feel it today. Have on my compression stocking and been using an ice pack. And I am so slow! Haven't seen these speeds since first starting out! Trying to feel good about the distance and not get bummed about the speed. Two rides planned for next week.
