Once the sun came out around noon, I determined it might be a good idea to ride from the house, southbound, to join the GDB Mesquite guys on the regular 2PM ride... I put on tights, three upper layers (underarmor, underarmour, jersey) and full-fingered gloves, and headed out, at 1PM.
Within a quarter mile I had hit enough of the chilly E/SE wind that I turned back, went in the house to put on arm warmers, shorts over the tights, and put a light jacket in the bag, and went back out.
Within a mile, I turned back again, went back in the house, and dug out my lobster shell gloves to go over my full-fingered ones, and put ear covers on, as well. And went back out...
Within two more miles into the wind, I had already decided to kill the idea of riding to Mesquite for the group ride, and just did about 10+ miles (total, including my previous aborted starts) through my neighborhood, and went home. And this was in full sunshine...
I dunno... just too chilly of a wind for me today, for some reason!!!!
