Colder than a witches tit

sherri_chickie · 12-13-2009, 12:25 PM

Just went outside and damned near died. It is -33C, that is -27 F for you American types. I am hoping it keeps up and tomorrow school is closed, I could use a day to sleep in.

How cold is it elsewhere?

It's 33F here right now. It was about -15F at home when I called a couple hours ago.

They close schools for the cold? We were always just told to "dress accordingly"

Pussy.
How you gonna make a ride in -20F temps?

It's funny but when I had my snowmobile or even my four wheeler, I would regularly go out in the cold and ride for hours but on a bike 50 is my absolute limit. For one thing, it's just to cold to really have any fun IMHO. You have to be ever mindful of tire temps/road temps and an innocent man hole cover could spell disaster! Ask me how I know...

It finally got up to 33*F so I "think" has melted off the roads.

I need to run out to get some lunch foods for work this week or I'll be hungry and miserable

Even the dog doesn't want to go out

It's 45 here... a little cloudy right now as it rained all night long, but it's clearing and the sun is starting to come out. I'm about to head out for a ride in a lil bit
