Did anyone else feel a tad chilly this morning? (Melbourne)

[SomeGuy]

Went for a ride this morning (only my second ride since May when I broke my collarbone), and boy was it cold! Did someone turn the heater off while I was travelling to work in comfort by train or something? BOM reckons it was -0.5 degrees as I travelled through Coldstream, and judging by the amount of ice forming on my arms and legs I'm not going to argue. Note to self: leaving the booties and warmer gloves at home was *not* a good idea. Anyone else freeze today?

The photos at http://thylacinecycles.com/wordpress/?p=158 help illustrate the point.

Oh yeah that was the coldest it has been around my place (SOuth Melbourne) for a while.... but soon got pretty warmed up. I love those Melbourne mornings... especially with the fog, its just great. BUt out that way with no booties and gloves that would have been cold.

I didn't freeze, I was doing hillsprints at the Kew loop at about 8am
in the fog. They keep you pretty warm

It's never too cold, you're just not wearing the right gear.

It was a tad nippy in Canberra this morning. Nice big frost down
around my way (Gordon).

In 6 months time it'll be 30 degrees by this time of the morning
(08:25), and I for one won't be complaining!

-5 here the last two mornings running, bright white frost everywhere.
Nice and sunny though and the days have been way too nice to be at
work (though I could say that about any day really).

Well, the English summer ended a month ago. I think we've had 30min of blue skies since then. Drizzley bazztard weather.. reminds me of Melbourne.. in WINTER. Temps are still low-20's so it's actually okay for riding in. Shame I couldn't get my tan any darker though - especially heading into another 9mths of **** weather..

They're forecasting a top of 9C here today if that makes you feel any
better
I'll second the call on the weather in France, looks glorious!
