2011 season begins

I had off of work today so decided to go for a longish bike ride.  Departing temps were about 30 degrees.  The Gary Fisher Rig was the ride of choice.  There was still plenty of snow and ice on the bike paths in the area.  It was nice riding in the sun during the week.  Few others were out, so there was very little traffic. The returning temps were in the 20s and after about 2.5 hrs I was quite cold.  A warm beverage powered the final miles.  Details here.
