But the Feds are open (so far). I guess that’s ok, my wife has to go to language class early since they are celebrating Ukrainian Christmas.

If I wear ski goggles I think I will be okay from a clothing standpoint. I am more worried about any mechanical issues that might pop up. Will my chain get wet and insta-freeze?

Your brakes may.

Also remember the batteries in your lights may freeze – bring backup lights!

“An air temperature in the single digits with sustained windspeed of 15mph can mean it can feel like -20 degrees to you. Frostbite can occur to any exposed skin in less than 30 minutes with wind chills in the -20 degree range.”

I’m not riding tomorrow either. 15 miles into a stiff headwind at 8 degrees is a recipe for a trip to the ER.

My feet would freeze off. I need winter riding boots.

I’m going to the doc on Wednesday to get antibiotics so my lungs grow back and I can ride!

GO TEAM ONE!

Because we’re kind of a big deal.

A heads up on shoe covers – I just bought PI mountain bike shoe covers at REI this morning. Their advice was to try them on with your shoes (I did) and/or and go larger than you think you will need. I found an XL to be about right for my size 41 womens mtn bike shoes.

Yep. I have the size L covers and size 42 MTB shoes and I expect I’m gonna wind up destroying the covers this winter.

What’s the fit like? Leaning slimmer or more “American”? I need a new winter jacket but I’ve never owned Gore tops before, only tights.

I have the women’s version of that jacket and I had to size up because the forearms were so tight I have spindly cyclist arms. Great jacket though!
