Busy both days, so I’m out for this one. Trying to get a good chunk of mileage tomorrow, despite the 20mph wind…

Hi all! This is my very first Freezing Saddles! I live in Anacostia, less than a mile away from the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail. In October, I got to exchange my soul-sucking drive to Fairfax for a GLORIOUS seven mile bike ride to Brookland. I’m working up to longer miles, but so far I can only seem to manage 40 on my own, 90 on a tandem. BTW! I have TWO tandems, if we want to do that kind of a team ride.

My fiancé is on Team 1, and I would very much like to beat him.

Bear hugs,
Katie ).

The MBT is wicked slick. Went down on the switchback by R St. Luckily I overdressed and was essentially wearing padding.

On these cold days, put the Garmin inside your clothing. For women, in the bra works…

Only if you have a case for your phone, ladies. Otherwise, the sweat mess it up in other no-so-fun ways…

Been trying the advice on here to little avail. I’m starting to wonder if I have Raynaud’s. This morning’s combo was the most successful attempt: foot-dog poop bag-fresh from the dryer wool sock with toe warmer-shoe-tin foil-bootie.

Let’s just say I was late to work.

Count me in, along with Erik B.!

Bearhugs,
Katie O.

I think that’s grounds for calling off the marriage!

But he also told me about Freezing Saddles. I figure that makes things even.
