Looking grim out there. I am riding home then going for a run. I hope I don't get too wet.

Was perfect going south for once, warm, a few spots of rain and a genuine tail wind. Most welcome

I rode home in the rain and then went running in the rain. It was very light. I'm not even sure I got properly damp riding home. After my run I was wetter from sweating than from the rain. It was actually good conditions for running.

I was on the good bike so was more worried about having to clean it- personally would love to ride in light rain :)

Not quite full finger gloves yet for me. Arm Warmers definitely... first time in many, many months.
Loved the southerly too :)

Was a smidge brisk out this morning... I guess its to do with finally having clearer skies.
Had a long sleeved base layer on this morning.

Thought of the long fingered gloves and maybe a gilet, but I wanna keep some wiggle room for when the temp drops a little more!

Was warm enough after a couple of km's to not notice too much anyhow.

Hopefully it is not too cold for the start of 3 / 5 dams this sunday. It's gonna be a pain to figure out what to start out wearing, given its gonna warm up a bit later into the morning!

I didn't find it too cold this morning and this is my ideal temperature, but I did wear arm warmers for the first 20k which was the first time this year.

First morning this year to hit single digits as i left, 9.7 deg but it was a beautiful ride in, clear skies, hardly any winds.

Reached for the arm warmers rather than long sleeve base layer.

8.5 at my place when I left, legs were heavy in the cold, felt like a strong headwind despite it being still. Warmed up pretty quickly though

Did the light "compression" base layer today- was a bit chilly in the low areas- need to pull out the "medium" gloves for a dust off.

It was cold ripping down Lovekin Drive this morning but felt so good turning up the hill on Forrest Drive and feeling the warm sun.

It's mad how much the temperature can change though. I ride passed this bit of bushland each day and even though it gets the same sun and on the same elevation as my house it's consistently colder than each side where it's regular houses.
