Warm Weather In February

It has been a long winter and it isn't over yet, but today it got up to 58 and tomorrow we are expecting much the same. I went outside for my first bike ride since late November. For the past 2 months I have been spending time on my trainer and doing a spinning class at the YMCA. I did a short 17 mile ride today and averaged a good pace of 18 mph on a fairly hilly course.

I didn't get a chance to go snow-shoeing today, but will go in the morning. I suspect that most of tghe snow will be melted by tomorrow night.

It looks like we have a 5 day recourse from old man winter before it turns cold again. It felt good to get outside and bike along a road with some scenery. I didn't get chased today by any dogs, but did have one bark at me for a while.
