took the car twice this week, once because the lock on my bike had frozen and I didn't think to use de-icer on it. Took the car today because it's finally started snowing properly and I figured it's not worth risking it
We got a cold front come thru last night.
Temps dropped to about 50F, a high of only in the low 70'sF, burrr....
cca 1 meter and still falling
Once again, a new record low for me as far as riding. It was 1 degree F or -17 C when I left for work this morning, on my bike.
And I thought I was mad riding in -5c the other night, had to put the heated gloves to 3/4 power!
My heated gear is at full power. I have my bike running at 4-5000 rpms while I'm stopped at the intersection to keep the heat going. The heat tends to taper off when it goes to an idle.
Again, Kenny, how do you keep your faceshield from frosting over? I can't ride below 26 F....
So here's my bike warming up this morning when the temperture was at 1 F or -17 C.
I only have to negotiate that not so great surface conditions throughout the complex and one or two blocks worth of side street. Major roads are clear. But trying to get to certain business including parking, getting fuel can be bit challenging.
We have had snow since Christmas, it has not melted due to the weather inversion. They said it's the coldest January ever recorded, figures, my first winter here.
