Jan 23, 2003 5:22 AM | | Low pressure will rapidly strengthen today as it moves off the
Carolina coast today and into the North Atlantic. This Ocean storm
will Increase winds and drag down plenty of Arctic air across the
region. These conditions will be the coldest the region has
experienced in several years.
...not even my Specialized lobster claw gloves are warm enough for this $hit!!
c'mon March!! |

Jan 23, 2003 8:23 AM | | Winter brings some of our best riding weather. Today is sunny with a high of 64-68 degrees F. I'm blowing out of the office at 3:00 to get in 1 1/2 ride up a local mountain (not a great technical ride but sure beats the gym). It rained slightly yesterday so I guess the bike is going to get a little yucky, eeewwwwwww ;o) |

| best time o year to ride!! | Mtn Mike
Jan 24, 2003 12:41 PM | | well maybe not the BEST, but it's not the worst either. Here the ground is frozen with an inch of snow... that's about 10x better than the MUD we've had all Fall season. Night riding in the snow is awsome too. stop whining and ride! ;) |
| NorCal Post Script | San Joser
Jan 24, 2003 1:32 PM | | Mother nature fooled me and the weatherman, by the time I hit Kennedy, it was overcast, wet, misting and foggy. Being the brave NorCal guy that I am, I saddled up and went anyway ;o) Note to self, balding tires don't work so good on wet, soggy clay uphill sections. Took the Heckler (my mud pig) as I just washed the Blur. Stopped at the Honda dealer to check out an Element on the way home and completely looked like their focus group (except 2X age)! |
