[bike] *shiver*

nuclearpolymer suggested a trip today, I've been watching the weather forecast. That forecast has had everything for today -- snow, clear with a high around 47, and pretty much everything in between. Reality seemed to be "windy with a high only around 40". This is not something I actually have the right clothes for.
We set out along the Minuteman. There was some intention of going on to Concord but consensus at Bedford was that we were just too cold to go on. We will not speak of the indignities that were visited upon me (though they did, I admit, keep my hands warmer). Had lunch at the Lexington Bertucci's, which was not really warm enough for my liking. Made it home with 24.42 miles on the bike computer. (Route map)
Let the record show that the forecast for this coming weekend, according to the NWS page I use, is for "mostly sunny with a high near 53" on Saturday and "a [30%] chance of rain, mostly cloudy, with a high near 52" on Sunday.
