Didn't envy the riding commuters this morning. Bloody chilly at work up on the open ground 😮

Yep, first morning in a long while that I felt the need to don a jacket. Clouds are scudding away overhead, coming from the Grim North. Winter is a' coming in....

I was one of those riding commuters and you were right not to envy me. 😉

Spent most of the ride fantasising about:

The natty long-johns, not the cowboy.

Oh yeah, had to stop half way to put a jacket on to cut the wind blast. I needed to stop for cash anyway, honest.

Wasn't impressed with the headwind, and my toes were freezing.
Knowing my luck the wind will change direction and be in my face on the way home too 🙄

At least I'll be able to try out my newly acquired Northwave Arctic Celsius boots.

Glad I put my jacket on before heading out, although I had to stop and take it off when I hit the last hill just before work.

The thermal qualities of my Ozzie winter gear left something to be desired...

(BTW I'm not that daft anymore)

I rarely come across heated seats *pause for dogging based joke*, but the last time I sat on one, and didn't realise it was a heated, I thought I had pissed myself as the warmth started emanating from below.

...I had been drinking.

Went out for a after-work ride last night and when I packed my kit bag it was very mild.
So, I wasn't really dressed for the occasion, as the weather change was so dramatic throughout the day yesterday. Luckily I had my 'emergency' waterproof in my rucksack that blocked a lot of the wind. Still bloody chilly in places!

Windy as heck out there too... nice though, crisp and lovely... but hard work into the wind.

I rode in this morning (on a Kona, not a bear sadly) and I started with a windproof on but stopped to take it off. I am that hardcore.

Update:

The air conditioning is on now as the thermometer is showing 25°C in my office. Glad I have shorts on.

You could use a push up bra - saggy tits is never a good look bareback....

I had to deal with a new hazard on the way to work this morning:

conkers on rural roads that haven't been squashed yet. like dodging marbles, had a bit of a moment when the back stepped out over one!
