About the same here. It should be over 45 tomorrow. I'll try to ride, but it will have to be early, so it will likely be colder.

Hmmm I was curious to find out if you could calculate how much cooler you'd feel riding at a particular speed at a given temp., but apparently it doesn't work that way :laughing: :frusty:

Gotta disagree Randy...when it's under 40...numbness to fingers and toes (even with gloves and boots) makes it just not worth it to me.
