It is not unusual to get a few spring storms that dump snow on the ground in May, so I should not have been too surprised when we woke up to a layer of snow this morning. It should also not surprise me that we washed the cars this weekend (tempting the weather Gods), or that I turned on the sprinkler system yesterday (further tempting the weather Gods to unleash some cold on us). So it will be with a wee bit of trepidation that I crank the sprinklers on again if / when it ever gets warm / dry enough.
As for the saddle...I managed to get out for a quickie road ride yesterday after work before the latest installment of a spring fling storm rolled through. It was a ride up to Rocker and back....a little over an hour of pedaling with the first 40 minutes being into another mean headwind - although the return leg was sweet with a strong tailwind. It ended up being 24 miles at an average power output of 200 watts. The original plan was to get out for a quick ride and then get out for a longer ride on Tuesday on the fat tire. This plan is definitely up in the air given the weather...have to hope it warms up enough to melt this stuff quickly since most of our lower trails are (doh! I mean 'were') ready to be ridden.
