Winter just won't give up!!

This past weekend it was really nice and we were able to get some decent miles in. Cathy bundled up with probably more cloths than I wear riding through a blizzard, but she was way pumped to get outside. We headed out of town into a northeast wind. The plan was to push the wind up to Milton and then have it on our backs the way home. Well for some unknown reason the group actually followed my lead, which lead us to the middle of absolutely know-where! Oh yeah and the entire time was against the wind. By this time about 1.5 hours into the ride the wind had switched to northwest. So as we started to head home we were still pushing a head wind. When we finally found Kennedy Road and turned south we had a straight west wind. It wasn't on our heads but definitely wasn't on our backs either.
Oh well it was a good ride.
This week the weather really has taken a turn for the cold. They are saying it is supposed to warm up so hopefully that happens by the weekend.

Are you into hills? Check out this race! I have never done it but from the sounds the one hill is totally killer. We are going to be in Minnesota that weekend for Easter so I think we are going to bring the bikes and see what all the winter training is worth.
