It was unbelievably cold today. 5°C felt like winter and I regretted I didn’t wear the winter jacket… I also started looking for some heated gloves, because I have no idea how I’m gonna survive the real winter…🤡
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower I could recommend "lobster" or "split mitt" style country skiing mittens/gloves. Better than gloves because your adjacent fingers warm each other but your middle and index fingers aren't tied to each other. Maybe get a size larger than normal and you can wear thin merino wool gloves underneath if it's really cold. YMMV but heated gloves never ever seemed worth it even at -15°C.
This is what I mean https://varuste.net/en/p100526/swix-endure-split-mitt
#Night#Gravel goes on despite my toe taking the colour of a a ripe plum. I already regret this in the morning, but also I’m getting ready for a 6am ride as we speak, so I will regret it even more…
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower 😁
Just your average winterbiking Canadian here... We had a high of 11C yesterday. But it could snow again this week.. In fact, we kind; f hope it does. Wildfire season has already started 😟
@luccamerel Thanks for asking! She’s doing great! Keeping her head straight, turning over and trying to crawl, making sounds and trying to mimick our lips movements! She’s also growing fast and getting heavier every day!🥰 And she’s only 3 months old!😱😁
@f800gecko Until now I’ve been using cheap neoprene shoe covers. Those shoes are now discounted from €250 to €160, so never better time to get ones… Hoping they will keep my feet warm in winter as well… Proper test will come soon as weather in #Poznan is gonna turn into shit in next few days…🤷🏻♂️🥸 @cycling@rower
@adamshutes It’s difficult for me to imagine getting used to the front mech shifting with AXS… I will consider it if I’m gonna get a new road bike.🤷🏻♂️
#NightRiders strike again! Some #forest#cycling has been done, especially entertaining it was in the middle of the #night! A friend has joined me on this cold endeavor, what a bliss.🥰
It’s been a relatively warm #night#gravel ride! A pleasant surprise to what has been it a last few weeks!🥰 Hot tea has been still involved, but at least it wasn’t about enduring the cold pain…🙈
