We are almost a week into the month and I haven’t posted a single ride yet. But I have been on the usual short rides, weather permitting, and if it’s just long enough to stretch my legs and breathe some fresh air – and freeze the tip of my fingers and toes. As for the fingers, I’m disappointed that those heated gloves aren’t all that good. One of the batteries dies after about 40 minutes and when in order to prolong the battery life I don’t use the highest setting my fingers get cold. But spring is coming (when?) and I’ll worry about cold fingers next winter. For now my strategy is to just hang on.

I’d love some sun

March 1 – Got some sun

I’d love to ride some different routes

March 2 – Nothing new today, just the tried and true

I’d prefer to ride my bike

March 3 – And I did. It was pretty darned cold at 8:30 for my ride to Starnberg. I now have a yoga class once a week and could take the train – only five minutes – but prefer to cycle there. Janos then met me after class and we rode home together.

I’d love a warmer day

March 5 – That was stating the obvious, wasn’t it. Some days I’m less resilient. This was one of them and I was glad to be home after 45 minutes.
