johnridleyThe thermometer on my bike computer is supposed to read to -20. This morning it just said "--". I suspect that's it's way of saying "you gotta be kidding."
The thermometer on the house read -15.9 when I left.
It actually was a totally fine ride; I was a bit cold in the fingers and nose for the first mile, but once the blood got pumping that was fine too. I do need to do something about my face mask though. Probably a neoprene nose/mouth cover. If I pull up what I have now to cover my mouth, I wind up steaming my goggles up almost instantly. The only part that got really cold was my face right next to my nose; on the left side it's a bit puffy and feels a bit warm, but I do have feeling there so if there was frostbite it was pretty mild.
Looks like motorcycling sites have plenty of selection, I'll get something like this coming:
