Re: BRRRRRR!!!!!

Gee Jer, I'm really feelin' sorry for you. It's about 85 here this AM, with highs around 92 today. So... I'll be in a t-shirt all day.

Really sucks don't it?? (NOT)

40, wow. I won't see 40 'till I open my freezer.
btw today was also my second commute to work. 8 miles each way. It's in the 80s here. Mostly cloudy.
Also still fun.

Re: BRRRRRR!!!!!

It was cold. But way fun!!!!

As I crusied by the boat ramps to a nearby lake there was a lot of fog off to either side of the road. It was really cool riding near that. I can see how people get into this.

I didnt miss not having music. (like in the car)

In fact I found myself singing Gary Moore's "Over The Hills & Far Away" in my head...... Thats an odd choice for me. Awesome song though.

Re: BRRRRRR!!!!!

Weird. I was singing Life Is A Highway by Tom Cochran this morning. It's not odd that I was singing. I sing all the time, poorly. Just odd that I was singing on the bike. I've never done that before.

Re: BRRRRRR!!!!!

You "singers" need an audio system. I'll have to check the rules, but I'm not sure you should be having that much fun.

Re: BRRRRRR!!!!!

I do need audio.

I'm thinking I'll give my earbuds a try.

Its not like I can hear anything on the bike anyway. I'll need to pay attention to my mind wandering. If I think I'm lowering my attention to the environment I'll have to yank em.

Re: BRRRRRR!!!!!
