Expert  1076   Las Vegas, NV |  Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2009-2010We need a category for us SW desert folks. When we're used to training at 110 degrees, riding in the morning when it's in the 40's is brutal! |

Todd I wish I felt your pain but I look forward to 40's come January Yeah, I didn't figure we'd get any sympathy  You all are tough to get out there and ride in the really cold. Brrr!!! |

A couple of hours with a hamster wheel is a lot of suckage. I'll even put it outside if that helps! Sorry your wheels need to be moving on pavement/cement for this to count.
Me - "But honey, I need to buy a new cross bike so I can take part in the BT Crappy Winter Weather Challenge!" My wife - "Then you can sleep outside with your new bike, right?" |

Sure you can. I would have to figure something out for swimming points - what is the normal water temp and then the winter water temp. Polar Bear is for close to freezing water - sub 35. Snow is not required - cold is the main factor. Snow & Rain just get you more points! welll I can pretty much guarantee that it is more then 35 or Im not even near it!!!! |

| Pro 4828 The Land of Ice and Snow | Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2009-2010 I'm in!! Had a nasty horrid no good ride yesterday in 30F with wind AND snow. Ugh. Had I been able to accrue crappy points it may have made it a little more bearable. |

| Pro 4828 The Land of Ice and Snow | Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2009-2010 Bill.......I have a question for this years challenge. I know we take into account temp and wind and precipitation BUT we use actual temps.....not the windchill values. Wondered why this is? I mean if you are out there and it is 5c but the windchill value is -5C then what you are actually enduring is an ambient temp of -5c. More sucky. Way more sucky. Just a thought.......she says wanting to accrue as many points as possible, knowing her wind chill temps will KICK AZZ!!!  |

| Pro 4828 The Land of Ice and Snow | Subject: RE: Crappy Winter Weather Challenge 2009-2010 OK.........so I may not accrue as many points as I previously thought. My knee is not good........waiting on a scope. Not sure if I will be running anytime soon....... But I will hang out and play anyhow. I do ride outside in the winter...........so there is that at least.  |
