Last Saturday (January 31st) this ride took place in Coldspring, TX. The temperatures were brutal and the wind added to the pain. I did not go but these photos show a number of riders braved the weather. Note the number of blankets. These pictures are from the Bike Through the Forest and the Hills website.
I didn’t make the Puddle for the Ducks ride this morning. The temperature was 39 degrees and the start time was so early, 7:00 AM. As it turns out there was construction closures on several freeways also which I did not realize. So I decided to ride in my area. 31.10 miles in 2 hours and 8 minutes. The temperature was 64 degrees with sunny skies and a light 8 mph wind. Since I did not start until 2:20 PM I did not see any other riders.
