Title: So,what do you see......
Post by: ford832 on January 24, 2011, 04:26:28 AM
...when you look out your front and back door?AKA,what's going on in your part of the world right now?
TMKIWIS post of the temp down under just got me thinking-as well,I tend to be curious about where other biking types live and the country/conditions as compared to my own.
Anyhoo,in my case-white hell...

back

I might add as well,since this picture was taken the wind has picked up to about 30-40 km so it's blowing around and filling in my freshly blown out driveway.The temp is sitting at a balmy -18 C or -3 F.
Brrrrrrrr.Come on spring.........

Sorry if a caused any confusion when I said it was 30 deg here.
I meant 30 Deg C. ;D
It's currantly 26 Deg or 80 F for you foreigners at 8.45 am Saturday morn.
It's pissing down with rain again with a cyclone racing down the country.
Hopefully it is gone by lunch because we are going to a winery this arvo to see George Thorogood & the Destroyers and Joe Cocker.
Dont want it canceled. >:(

Being metricated,it didn't confuse me,I'm just jealous.As for my view,it's still the same only there's another 8 in of snow on it.Oh well,I wasn't going to do anything with those 2 1/2 hours anyway :(
GT sounds like a hoot-especially if one was well lubricated 8)

So quit basketball and go riding. Team sports are overrated, team work, no "I" in team, some old fart yelling at you and making you run laps and crap, blah blah blah.

It's not that cold today, we don't get snow out here so pretty much great riding all year round as long as you dont mind a little rain here and there.  Of course, sometimes since the trails are high in the mountains they have snow. Once road a trail where it was raining, but as you climbed the trail it started to get more and more snow, lightly covered ground, then thicker and thicker.  Kinda cool.  The snow isn't even that bad that you can't ride and a lot of time there's no wind so its not even that cold as long as you're bundled.  It's the wind that makes it cold.

Im not going to quit cause basketball is my best chance at getting a scholarship to a college. My coach says i can if i train a little bit harder. Atleast we only have 4 games left, as soon as its over im going riding. ;D
