I did!

Subfreezing temps, nasty wind, blowing snow, freezing water bottle? HAH! I spit at thee!

Of course, I did a whopping 10ish miles 'cause I was running out of daylight - took forever to get dressed! Bibs, legwarmers, kneewarmers, a second pair of shorts (AKA nadwarmers), short-sleeved jersey, armwarmers, a long-sleeved tech fabric shirt, a hooded winter riding jersey, a windproof outer layer, a skullcap, socks, toeheaters (love those things!), some awesome Pearl Izumi Amfib overbooties, and some nasty old deerskin gloves made for an impressive pile in the laundry. I felt over-warm a few times, even.

Gotta say, though, a 29er goes through snow like Paris Hilton goes through Valtrex. With disk brakes, it was almost unaffected by the white stuff. Killer, man.

Damn, Did! Sounds like it took almost as long to get dressed as it did to ride the 10 miles!

Nice job on the HTFU!

Yeah, the one who REALLY HTFU'd yesterday is the one who ran a ~5.45 mile 6 mile race in that crap, THEN had to do hers and did's fitness-related laundry. I'm just sayin'.

He needs my bike mojo. And I can hook him up with, ahem, pictures of you, y'know?

And it was almost 14 miles.





Man, that's pathetic. I want spring. Now.
