Yeah- I hear ya- I live in southern Ontario- we've put up with a totally frigid cold winter- almost no spring- we 've had, I think, 3 or 4 nice days- I was working-couldn't ride- RAIN RAIN RAIN RAIN RAIN last week- and high winds...
and then today- freakin' SNOW.
It is frigid, cold, windy- and it's freakin' snowing. AGAIN.
Y'know- it's staring to turn into that old stereotype about July in Canada- howling blizzards.
Normally it should be warm and sunny. Not hot- but warm and sunny would be nice.
I was going out on my bike- I am wearing my new tights- which I've never had before- they are thankfully the winter weight ones- and surprisingly warm... I've got on a sleeveless technical shirt and a cycling shirt- and a hoodie sweatshirt AND my cycling jacket with the extra long tail....
but I feel as big as the michelin man! And- I know my knees are not gonna like this cold. So I have been waffling the last 2 hours. Been to the LBS all right- got a new fender and stuff...but have I rested the buttocks on my bike yet? Uh huh!!!!
Maybe- give me time.
Tomorrow I am commuting to work for sure!No matter what the weather.

Whe you come to the end of all you know-
and you are about to step off into the darkness
faith is knowing one of two things will happen-
there will be something solid to stand on-
or you will be taught to fly...
