  1. the commute home this a.m. found me pedaling under a 16°F sunny sky. Beautiful ride up the Fox
    River, just me, the Canada geese and and a smattering of Mallard ducks.

    Cold weather riding is a snap, as long as you layer your clothes and pay attention to fingers and
    toesies. One thing is certain -- winter cycling is a blammo cure for SAD. :-)

    .max there was some . . . shrinkage.

    And maybe pack some Kleenex for the inevitable runny nose. Although at aound the freezing mark, I
    seem to become acclimated after half an hour's riding (I don't often get to experience temperatures
    much below freezing.)

    Vitamin D indeed is wonderful stuff. And getting back home, out of the cold, apres-ride indulgences
    are all the more pleasurable and well-earned. Even if it's just a cup o' tea or two, and a bunch of
    McVitie's ginger snaps. Or a highball-sized B52. Or a bowl of homemade minestrone.

    I've just finished a stint of home-office work. I found myself feeling generally cold all the time,
    just from sedentarily sitting at the desk all day. Now that I can get some rides in again, I'm
    feeling much warmer now.

    At 16 F (-9 C), I bet there was :-)

    cheers, Tom
