Nathan CaldwellDidn't think I'd ride today, but the 40-45 mph/65 kph wind gusts backed off to a steady 17mph/27 kph, so I got in an abbreviated Tour de Neighborhood Nord just after official sunset and before our next rain event!🚲🌬🌥🌧
Nathan CaldwellClear and cool after yesterday's rain, but windy! By 6 pm the gusts were still 25 mph/40 kph at 52°F/11°C, but I managed a fun with wind and fitness against it ride!🌬🌬🚲(verified by stairs and cars!)
Nathan CaldwellThanks Mary! No bothersome hip for me, so no excuse not to ride!
Mary FoleyGood for you, Nathan, battling that wind to get in a workout. ;)
Nathan CaldwellMy friend got his bike back yesterday, and we headed out earlier than normal to try and beat the forecast rain, and managed to get 2/3 of the ride in before the rain overtook us! Fortunately the temp was 54F/12C, with calm winds, so were got back to his place just damp and not cold! 🚲🌧️ Glad we didn't wait as it's rained all afternoon, a rarity in our desert!🌵
Rob WormaldRain isn’t too bad if it’s not cold and windy (which it is here). Especially when it’s an infrequent occurrence (which it isn’t here)😂
Nathan CaldwellYes...now (13th Mar) it is cooler and quite blustery but more rain Friday and through the weekend.
Nathan CaldwellSqueezed in a quick Tour de Neighborhood Nord just beforenour uch later Daylight Savings Time sunset ! Temp of 52°F/11°C was colder than the last few days, signaling a forecast cool down! 🥶
Nathan CaldwellA and B were both home, and in the middle was our vet, where I dropped off a carefully collected urine sample from one of our dogs to test his kidney functions. 🐕🧪🧫
Mary FoleyHope your pup is getting better, Nathan. So sad when they are not feeling well. Great consistency with your riding. We had a 60F+ day today and expect another one tomorrow. At least I can enjoy the outdoors with my walking. ;)
Nathan CaldwellThanks for your concern Mary and Louise! We hope to get good news by tomorrow. Yoda is already taking 3 prescriptions, but it doesn't slow him down and he seems quite happy. He's a beagle and has also got a typically great appetite, which is a good sign!
Rob WormaldThanks for your comment Nathan and hope good news about Yoda you get. I maybe should have added that it was down to freezing here last night and a strong north wind is keeping us really cold. Added incentive to spend a day house cleaning and bedding washing
Jenny TurnerStill employed! Winter is a long time going in these parts.
On Indian roads it is expected that a driver/rider of any motor vehicle will use their horn as a warning to others for almost any traffic maneuver! Right Simon?
