I took advantage of one today and put on about 15kms in the Sandilands on a cool ridge (yet to be named) near Suicide Hill. I did some exploring of a newer trail which I really enjoyed. I got back and decided to do a quick 10kms on the road bike - I'm wearing the gear anyways...and the forecast is for rainy cold weather tomorrow. We actually had some sun and it felt like 12-15 degrees out but it has already cooled off. Well - i better check on supper!

Escape: Mtn Bike
For whatever the reason - it has been hard to get away this past week and do any significant riding. In part it has been rainy & cold - but I'm not really that much of a suck. It has taken awhile to get used to the three kid thing - I definitely don't want to just leave Wendy alone and so it's worked out that my escapes have to be somewhat coordinated.

Amazing that you're getting out on the bike at all with a new little one and gloomy, wet weather. Cold and wet is not much fun, even with good gear.
It's been blasting hot (mid-30s)here for a week, and today we got blissful rain -- seemed miraculous that water could fall out of the sky. It was still high-20s, so the rain felt great on my lunchtime ride.
hey I'm counting my blessings that my wife actually sends me out the door with a kick in the butt to go riding! She knows how cranky I get if I don't get some mountain bike action!
ha haha...we're both lucky (well, we did some choosing, I suppose) to have wives who recognize that reality.
