cold weather? How cold is it? - Page 2

In New Jersey, it never stops raining. I can't get any real outdoor
riding in. I am glad I signed up for a spin class. I am too much of a
novice to take a bike out in inclement weather. I fell over when it was
a beautiful sunny day. I can't imagine what would happen if I rode in
the rain. Plus at my age, I would take forever to heal if I broke
something. But I will not give up. I will focus, ride, train and do
my 25 mile ride for MS on my birthday. YES I WILL!!!!!

Persistence is the twin sister of excellence. One is a matter of
quality; the other, a matter of time.

I'm on the front range also, and the streets around my neighborhood
still have wet ice on them (sigh). I've been spending my evenings on
the trainer watching my tapes of the 2004 TDF. I'm still itching to
get outdoors, but sweatin' to the mountain stages with Phil and Paul is
not a bad alternative.

Come on guys. It was up to 50F yesterday
and will go beyond today. The main roads are
completely dry.
