Qld weather venting postsRe: Qld weather venting postsPicked up a head cold this week, must have caught something from all the hill gasping last weekend, so the indoor trainer was dusted off for this morning. (Raining again
Re: Qld weather venting posts
+heaps. An absolutely brilliant day. I did a quick ~40Km ride this morning and it was lovely. A bit of debris on the paths, as you'd expect, but otherwise a great day. Max One of the best things about bicycle commuting is that it can mitigate the displeasure of having to go to work. - BikeSnobNYC

Re: Qld weather venting postsMe too....the weather gods must have read my post in the 6k club about hitting 4000 this month if the weather played nicely.....clearly it's not playing along with me and I'll fall short
It's a wet season that is never ending...... Lisa

Re: Qld weather venting postsChose the WRONG day for only my second ever 100mile+ ride, 175k in atrocious cold and rain over a couple of mountains (coming down them of course only made it even colder). I'm finding myself pining for the drought to come back again, there was one year in the early '00s when we had 99 days without any rain. Can you just imagine how much riding you could get done with that!

Re: Qld weather venting postsCouldn't find my flippers this morning so didn't ride.
Cold is OK, but cold wet and dark? Only for Tasmanians. Or Melbornians. Ha ha! Cookies on dowels.

Re: Qld weather venting postsI have just seen the sun for a few minutes the first time for several days .... there's hope that I might get a dry ride sometime soon
Re: Qld weather venting posts
The sun? What's that???? I did see some glimpses of blue sky today....hoping that it's dry enough to ride to work tomorrow, it would be nice to ride again..... Lisa
Qld weather venting postsJust saw red sky at night!
Isn't that riders delight? Cheers Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
Re: Qld weather venting postsit's weird being nearly the only cyclist on the bikeway.. I still prefer riding in the rain to catching public transport.
BOM says a shower or two tmrw, then sunny skies for sat/sun
Re: Qld weather venting postsAnother wet week in Bris.
Very ethereal on Mt Coot-tha today, fog and mist in abundance. Did see 3 cyclists mid-morning, one walking in the rain, one fixing a puncture in the rain, and one with dual suspension and no such worries. Recent Favorite rides:
December -TUMBULGUM to TOMEWIN by some obscure route-can't wait to do it again !!!
Re: Qld weather venting postsI got really excited this morning when i saw the fog as fog normally means a clear day.
As I wait for a Job to appear (currently unemployed) I was going to go out to Bunnings on the bike and drool over what i can't afford at the moment. Dame rain They say it might be cloudy tomorrow, I hope Donald BCC give us some more bikeways fore safe travel!!!!

Re: Qld weather venting postsToday was the coldest I can ever remember riding in: 2.8 degrees apparent/4.3.
And the river loop was deserted at 5am. But a beautiful day never the less. Ha ha! Cookies on dowels.
Re: Qld weather venting postsVery cold Bayside today. Headed out at 5.15, had complete body numbness by 5.17!! I guess this is the price we pay for these sensational clear sunny days.
Re: Qld weather venting postsAs low as 1 °C this morning the coldest river loop I can remember.

Re: Qld weather venting postsI leave my wind jacket on the hanger.
Extra base-layer is much more useful - I don't end up feeling like a roast chicken in a bag. Ha ha! Cookies on dowels.
Re: Qld weather venting postsI don't wear it often, but appreciate it on conditions like today.
Mine is extremely breathable so I don't overheat. Support my Ride to Fight MS!
