Howdy, folks, I’m Matt (Williams, not Black) and I’m a year-round cyclist. 😲😉
This is my fourth time participating in freezing saddles, but it’s been a couple years since my last go-round. I work from home so don’t ride to work, but instead ride *from* work during lunch. (Even my boss knows not to schedule lunch meetings with me because I’ll be out riding.) I’m out in the wilderness of suburbia (but not as far as Patty is) that is western Fairfax (Chantilly/Fair Lakes area). I typically ride 100+ miles / week, but during the winter that goes down a bit (although I will try to ride at least 10 miles / day during Freezing Saddles to maximize the points).
In past years I’ve won the Parkfinder and Civil War pointless prizes; this year I’m going for the Flag and Wandrer pointless prizes. I probably won’t last much longer in the flag competition though, as there aren’t that many flags out in my neck of the woods other than Old Glory.
