Don’t catch a chill, they’re always saying. Not to worry; I haven’t got a chill-catcher on  hand! 😉

Joking aside, it was about 40 degrees when I went for a ride this morning; and the wind was still quite strong. To me, that’s cold! Speaking of hands, I used hand warmers; and they make a big difference.

Because of the wind, I headed for the park to ride some laps. That way, I didn’t have to ride for miles against a headwind on the way home. My nose acts up so much in such a breeze that anybody might say, You’ll catch a chill. And tonight, the temperature will fall to the mid-30s!

More Cold 🧊

So we’ve got more cold on the way; at least, for tonight and tomorrow morning. After it warms up, I can go out and practice riding hard; per the usual routine. I ride casually for 10 minutes or so to get my legs warmed up; then alternate riding hard for two minutes with riding easily for one minute. I can’t do lazy rides all the time if I want to get stronger!

I’ve been layering up for my rides; and sometimes I’m wearing my vest plus two jackets. The usual advice is: better to be slightly underdressed, that to be overdressed. But I’d rather be a bit too warm than to feel cold. I don’t need to catch a chill!

ABOUT ME

I began this website primarily as a way to present the story of how I accomplished a century ride on an adult tricycle. Other riders of adult trikes might want to know whether it’s possible. It sure is! You can read all about it in My Story.

I live in New Orleans; and  retired in January 2023. More time for cycling!
