Endurable Me.

Freezing Ankles, Itchy Thighs

Burrh, cold. Went for a ride this morning, 42 degrees and it rained on me about 15 minutes in. Ankles started getting real cold heading down hold hill. Then it started hailing on me. Geting pelted in face by freezing rain is no fun, and it actually stings. I cut the irde a bit short as I was getting just too cold to stay out there. The 30 minutes after the ride was almost worse than the ride itself. I itched my thighs raw and they thawed.

Finally got the photos from the PPP up -> View Here

I also took some photos at a local crit on Wednesday -> View Here

Going to a Ben Harper concert tonight. Hopefully it doesn’t rain on us. Should be good.

Yucky ride. Bummer. I don’t like hail either so I understand.

Great pics again. Cool lighting on the crit. And excellent exposure on the snow ones. Sometimes it’s tricky with the snow but you & your camera did a great job. Totally got the feel of both races. the PPP is wild - to go thru all those extremes. Thanks for sharing them! You are inspiring me to try some shots like this. Now to find a race in my area…

Those are awesome pics! You ought to go pro. Each one is like a Successories poster. Just crystal clear and the color is great!

That had to be worse than the “Frozen Run of Death” I experienced, one spring. I had sun, rain, hail, and snow all in one run. Of course, being on the bike makes it just that much worse. I imagine it’s a lot better, now.
