LOL. Check here: http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/travel/h ... eather.htm

Today it will be a high of 72°F (22°C) and a low of 45°F (7°C). I'll be going to a local bike night tonight and it will be around the 45°F (7°C), which is pretty cool riding temperatures when it's high humidity. :cold:

Just have to bundle up.

perfect weather!

gloomy skies, cool temps, no rain.

found a new route near me than has some hills and fairly bike friendly route. practicing some hills since i might join a group ride up palomar mountain.

I need to get back into cycling. I have a Rival (yay compact crank) equipped bike sitting in my mom's basement that hasn't been ridden in half a year.

Oh, some POS aluminum frame/cf fork from bikesdirect. I'm thinking in spring I'm going to order me a Soma ES frame: http://pedalrevolutionblog.files.wordpr ... de1low.jpg

Also, I got this in today and swapped out the stock sony pads for some Beyerdynamic pads:

Had a long day at work and slept a good portion of the day away, then I caught up on the PVR. Pretty much a wasted day... :)
