biking around freezing

Mon Feb 09, 2004 1:19 pm by Eh_Steve

Alright, I got cramps from computer and geometry so I decided to go ride my bike. It's 30 degrees fahrenheit right now, that's 4 degrees celcius for all of you not in the US. My ride started out fine and I finished my first mile after a stop at my friend's house. I made it home and realised that I had left the garage door opener at his house, a half mile away. I went back, got that and then the the wind picked up. The wind chill is around 20F at the moment and dropping. To top it off I did all of this in a light windbreaker. I pulled the same stunt yesterday in the snow and ice, not as much today though. That was a rush!

30 degrees F is -1.1111111 degree C

, anyway...I do not see a reason to even go out at less than freezing temperatures...and you went to ride a bike...

you must be extremely brave, or extremely foolish

Some intelligence... from Wolfy! It was a blast and no snow, just ice and slush. I got my conversions from the weatehr channel anyway and I rounded. But you get the point, I am crazy. I thank you for thinking that.

I bike to work. Thats half an hour each way. I've done that in minus 40c weather. Snow, rain, wind, neither stop me.

I went mountain biking in the snow last year, it was great fun until I hit one icy patch of rough ground. I was going fairly fast at the time and I slammed into the ground, ground that had been all chewed up by horse's hooves and the frozen to form a hard and fairly pointy surface. I had this huge bruise across one side of my arse and I couldn't sit down normally for almost a week!

I went out in shorts and a T-Shift when it was -40 Celsius. That's -40 Farenheit for those of you who don't have a mentally stable political leader.
