I'm a fairly active cyclist, so I finally got a ride in this morning after having snow/ice and single digit temps over the past two weeks. Then I took the dogs running at a local park since they too have been cooped up in the house.
I plan on banging out miles again tomorrow, then smoke some ribs.

nice, how cold does it need to get for you to stop cycling outdoors? i’d imagine the wind chill at high speeds is the toughest part

Typically about 20 degrees Fahrenheit (or -6 C) is when I look at the winds, humidity and if the sun will be out. Then I'll decide if I really want to ride or not.
It was 32 degrees this morning and wet, and I went out anyways. I did hit an ice patch running 27 MPH when I crossed a bridge when I was about 15 miles from home. I am not sure how I recovered without crashing. Something, something, rotational inertia? :)
