I even managed to clean the Xtracycle yesterday without my hands sticking to the bare metal.

Our last post was a “slurppee”post with nice weather, well we woke up yesterday to 6 degrees and 6 inches of fresh snow. Neither of the 2 were in the forecast, our “Weather People” make forecasts that say ” today we have a 50% chance of it being partly cloudy” how can they be wrong with that then at the end they claim to be the most accurate. They can never be wrong with a forecast like that.

“Friction + Movement = Warmth” is a Michigan equation.

I’ve very bad memories of training rides in January when I thought my feet would fall off, then at the usual comfort stop (cafe) none of us could find anything to pee with, since all extremities had retreated into the warm! Lovely shot anyway!

Riding a bike isn’t really fun in this coldness.
