Up here the bikers wear these huge mittens over their gloves when they bike in single digit temps, do you knwo what I mean? They're so big they look like balloon gloves. Soon you will be wearing the same, hee, hee. Great job on the work out and sorry about the work stresses. Christmas vacation is coming up, that's one good thing.Cinthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16319692437720914477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-8523533815896476292012-11-28T22:41:57.129-05:002012-11-28T22:41:57.129-05:00You are crazy!

Bike riding is good!<br />Even though not always the most pleasurable experience in terms of our fingers and tootsies staying comfy, there is something invigorating and just plain neat about being the only one brave enough to get out and endure the cold-it's quiet and peaceful, too, because no one else is as crazy and fun-loving as us - they don't dare go out in the cold! :-) Smartwool under the gore tex will make you happier, definitely. Jaxon is just the cutest little guy - the kitties MUST be jealous!!!HappyTrailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17651141743444721517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-73622777064528335512012-11-28T16:16:37.748-05:002012-11-28T16:16:37.748-05:00I'm so sorry to hear that work is continuing t...I'm so sorry to hear that work is continuing to be tough.

Bundling up is worthi it as compared to riding nowhere. Unfortunately for us we have so much gravel on our roads now that even if the snow melts I don't feel that great about riding outside. Maybe if I had something other than a TT bike to ride... Anyhow, good for you.

If I do decide to start riding in the cold, I'll probably use those chemical hand warmers. I ordered a box of them online for use during cold weather races.Ransickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14084824367872613487noreply@blogger.com
