Biking on December 24?

Ok, so here it is X-mas eve and I get to go for a 25 miler with my son in 50 degree weather. I would probably have preferred playing hockey on the frozen pond all day, but ???? Global Warming? Its just a myth, right?

There were kids out riding their new Christmas bikes in Peacham Vermont on Christmas moring. It was a strange sight. They should have been out playing witht their new sleds but there was no snow.

yeah, today I went out on the mtb in trumbull. nice ride, perfect mtb weather... very wet. Does not look or feel like winter at all. Seems like we had 4 weeks of fall, 3 weeks of winter and spring in between.

Yeah, crazy warm bruno...I haven't posted my rides in a while...was a bit under the weather since new years eve day. And I actually skied a day or two over Christmas weekend.

Anyway...got out in the woods this morning.....rode a new loop off the new trail that my buddy has been building.. Rode nice with a few cool obstacles....a double log roll with some steep rock rollers as well as the usual rock gardens. Looking forward to tomorrow.

Yeah, no doubt, Bruno....after another nice ride Friday morning before work....Saturday was just ridiculous. I was literally wearing shorts and the thinnest, lightest, short sleeved zip-necked tee shirt I have to ride in the woods on saturday. Warm, sunny and a great ride. Definitely very weird and disconcerning that it was January 6.

Another good ride this morning...not quite as ridiculously warm..but still probably peaked at about 50 at the end. Long, hard ride. I'm exhausted!

Rain coming in and I'm beat..probably won't be back on the chariot until wed or thursday morning.

35 miles of urban ridin' in nyc today. started off rainy but got nice and sunny by 2pm--50 degrees or so. windy though. nyc is some good urban commando style ridin'! way safer than beantown surprisingly. better roads and better drivers. for real!
