Soo ready for weather to be a bit warmer!

Am I losing my marbles or did those wind gusts feel a little warm? I mean, they almost blew me over but they didn't seem cold to me.

Gotta admit...tired of all this cold weather riding. Nevertheless, I keep on pedaling.

I imagine I rode home earlier than you. It was still sunny when I rode, but it was pretty windy. Thankfully, my route is more north/south than east/west. Riding west this evening would have really sucked.

I left work around 6 and was going north. Just bitterly cold and windy. I was exhausted by the time I got home.

Short commute today, so I barely had time to get cold. The headwind is fierce going away from downtown on Elston. Saw one guy heading in using it to his advantage.

Days like today when I see this I guy I want to tell him to bite me, wasn't so bad other than that on a couple spots on the body it hurt.

A few years older and a few years colder. Haven't been on the bike for four weeks. Looking at the extended forecast, will probably be at least two more weeks. I am done with this Winter!

However, 3.8 was my cold day last year. I'm not sure what my cut-off temp would be.

The headwind was full of gusto this morning. I had help dealing with it because there was a dude in front of me and I wanted to keep up with him so I pushed harder than normal. I didn't pass him but I kept up. thanks dude. Funny how thin the line is between comradery and competition. enjoy the cold while it lasts. pretty soon we'll be sweating in 95 degrees of suffocating humidity.

Drafting behing the guy in front of you helps in high winds. Still on the fence whether it's a dick move or not, though. As long as you don't ride too close.

You should at the very least say hi and let the person know you're behind them for their safety and yours. Also, trading off positions so you aren't mooching off of them the entire way would be good.
