Upcoming Weather...

Who else is looking forward to the forecasted 40's next week? I gave my bike a total overhaul today wiped her down to get the grime off, lubed her up and gave her a tune-up in preperation...Oh man I am looking forward to the days of riding in shorts and short sleeves not to mention short finger gloves and water bottle that's half filled with ice...

I find accuweather to be a little more accurate than weather.com, they are not nearly as commercialized and are more precise in their forecasts at least in my humble opinion that is...

Keep in mind the wind chill. It is posted at whatever a stationary person would feel, but once you add in the 15-20 mph a cyclist is traveling at, the wind chill is a little different.
As far as people complaining about the current temp., at least it has been consistent for the last week or so, wind chill +/- 10 deg. around 0.
Ride strong and drink hard on the mass tomorrow.
