It rained and snowed last night but today it was sunny but rather chilly. Since it was sunny and the roads were dry, something that we haven't had in abondance in the last month, I decided to get in one last bike ride. Dressing up in a mix of x-country skiing stuff and biking stuff, (rather cool to be riding in a short sleeved bike jersey and cycling shorts) off I went. The temperature was about 4 to 5 degrees Celsius (40 F) but what was really a killer was the stiff breeze. The tailwind was OK and really accelerated the ride, but the headwind was another matter entirely, boy was it cold. I still managed to do my 30 km but at a slightly slower pace than normal. I am usually able to do the 30 km in an hour and today it took me 70 minutes... So I guess that this is my last ride of the season unless we get really warm, sunny weather.
