While i must say i am envious of Enmark for being able to ride in shorts and short sleeves, i was treated to weather here in Chicago that required you to wear less than "all of it".
Saturday was a nice ride with Tawse down the burlington tracks and back. It was a nice shakedown ride for his new rig, and he seemed to be pleased with the performance. Saturday was nice, had some good digs at each other, nice weather, just about 2.5 hours for me.
Sunday - no one could decide on common ground, and since Sarah had to ring the bells at church, i opted out of the 8am ride. Glad i did, as it was about 29 degrees at ride time for them. I went out around noon, and again it was about 52 or so, and i was not required to put it all on, not even a thermal jacket! Now i know good and well warm weather in Chicago is not here to stay until around June, but i will take it while it is here. For Lenny, i snapped a few pics of what looked like it was a sweet back yard hockey setup. 50 degrees doesn't do well for the ice. The Chicken recon showed much progress with the 'lets send 355 farther south' project. Some unfortunate folks down on bluff road will have an exit ramp in their front yard; i guess it will be easier to get home anyway for them. I ended up with just a hair over 3 hours for sunday, and 1600kj. Not too shabby. Here are a few pics, i will have more later
