Was going to go to UT campus today on the bike.. walked outside and did a 360. Winter already came and went, I'm not riding in rainy 36 degree weather in Austin Texas on April 7th; fuck that.

I think the coldest place in the United States right now is in north Texas.

Must be global warming.. since it also causes global cooling.. pretty hard to argue against something that causes 'everything'.

Dude put on some layers. I went out today in Mass and it was 40. I was perfectly comfortable except for my hands since I don't have winter gloves.

BikesandBaseball, I live in westchester also. Mahopac and Tarrytown.

I took the bike out for a quick 5 mile run to show my friend the new bike. I had 4 shirts on and my leather jacket and gloves. I couldnt feel my hands on the way back, my chin was freezing, my legs were ice and the Puig Double Bubble does nothing to prevent any more wind buffeting than the stock windshield, and im short 5'8. I dont care what anyone says.

I just did 50km in 35*F like 10 minutes ago. With a couple shirts, leather jacket, sweat pants & jeans I really wasnt that cold.

Only my toes and fingers were cold, due to lack of good boots and a* sp2 gloves (not exactly ideal for cold climates).

If it goes upto 44*F tomorrow Im definately going and hitting some twisties.

We had a couple days near 60 about two weeks ago. Saw lots of bikes out and toyed with pulling mine from storage. Then we got more snow and highs in the low 20s with 30+ mph winds. I have no idea why I choose to live in ND...
