I am self appointing for chair of the rules committee where I will rule with an iron fist. No freeze points. No e-bikes. No slackers team.

What other rule change would you like me to deny?

I know you won’t deny this rule: No colliding with cars two weeks before FS17 ends on 3/20/17!

temps were perfect; light rain, but no downpours; some headwinds on the way to Assateague, tailwinds mostly back to Salisbury.

I will be there with Ryan S. doing the Assateague route. Dave S. and Jean D. are planning to ride tandem. Hoping Matthew only brings wind, but no rain on Saturday…

Yikes. Sounds terrifying. Multiple fractures, I presume? Sending healing wishes!! w&w

Yep. C6 fracture, both hands sprained, right arm bruising, right hip dislocation, right knee bruised/laceration, left big toe dislocation and fracture, and concussion. Helmet cracked all around. Thanks for the well wishes.

I have a late entry: March 5, 2016 around 3:45 pm on Tuckerman Lane. T-boned a car that pulled out in front of me. Garmin says I was doing 28 mph… Unfortunately, this ended my Freezing Saddles #bikeeveryday streak…

Started PT last week, and hope to be back at work in May, approximately 2 months after the collision. Congrats to all the Freezing Saddles winners!

This system seems more complicated, so it must be better!*

Also, my Freeze Points rank is 107 higher than my regular rank. So I may not always ride, but when I do, it’s during the shittiest weather.

*seriously though, I think this better captures the spirit of the competition and fully endorse its use in the future.

My regular point rank is 25, while my freeze point rank is 17. Not sure what that means, but in the scheme of things shows some consistency on my part…

So with this scheme it’s better to not ride at all if it’s over 45 degrees out, rather than incur negative points?

Perhaps there could also be a metric for the number of rides incurring negative points, which could be called the “Fair Weather Rider” category. You still get your mileage number, but reduced by the temperature variable. Thus, if you ride 100 miles in 50F weather, you only get 90 points (or something like that)…

I don’t know. -3 points for 200 miles at 50 degrees. Sounds okay: we gotta rein in subby somehow.

I agree, negative points should be awarded when the temperature is over 45F. That isn’t even close to Freezing! No points for you! [imagine Soup Nazi voice]

A broken foot is serious business. If it were me, I would let it heal up good and strong and wait for 2017. You would not want her to re-break it during a dark icy winter ride when she is not at full strength. Better safe than sorry, and all that jazz.

Are you sure it was “Bicycle Place? or Space?
