The Big Chill

The start of the weekend saw temps that will rival South Africa in terms of the extremes. Friday I awoke to temps with windchill of -26 F so it was another day on the trainer. Saturday did not fair much better but by the time Sunday rolled around it was a blazing 5 C so the mountain bike came out of the garage and I was off for a 25 mile ride. The highlight of the day was the sections of frozen waterfalls and rivers along with the snow covered trails. All conditions that I am not so sure will be of much use at the race. A warm shower and a cold beer and everything was back to normal.
