Well i picked one hell of a day to start commuting, enjoyed it weather or no weather. I recon if i can commute in the snow,sleet and wind of today, the year can only get easier.

    You guys are right. The weather is awful. It even rained a bit!

    5c here at the moment, no wind or rain, this morning was the warmest this week at 0c tomorrow might be a different story we shall see.
    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.

    Yesterday was great, getting blown sideways while being sand blasted with horizontal hail. My shoes still haven't dried out, wind eased of only to unleash the peril of snowflakes in the eye.

    Last year we had that sort of thing for a few weeks.
    I used to just ride my bike to work but now I find myself going out looking for bigger and bigger hills.

    Just goes to show that you are as well commuting year round.
    This week has been worse than most in December :P

    And last week will no doubt be better than most in July. :cry:
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.
