Winter Sucks

[stompandgo]

When are cyclocross riders going to switch to flat bars?

Or are drops the only thing making it a different sport?

Regulations. CX lanes are 75cm wide. Do the math.

Clearly you don't sell bikes or organize races for a living.

I suggest you apply for a position with the UCI and be sure to ask these types of questions during your interview.

Or ask your resident Commissaire.

You mean you saw them on a ride tomorrow

That is funny. When I set it this morning it must have been twelve hours ahead. PM not AM. Well tomorrow's ride was fun anyway. I like to stay ahead of the game.

Oh, there is a huge polar vortex ice storm coming that will severely impact half of the population of the US. As if that other ICE storm weren't enough.

They are calling for 18-22 inches of snow where I am located in PA.

weather can be a bitch back in the seventies got up one morning in April and it was 6F,I believe it was after the freak snowstorm,even here in the south weather can fool you, one reason its hard to get an early start on planting,OTH over in the Shenandoah Valley("daughter of the stars" old native American name) they can plant 2 weeks earlier then here in the ridges.Apparently the "squatches" like the hills.

Quite possibly... As global warming causes climate change which means more extreme cold/hot/everything.
It's not like that simpleton d_bag senator tried to demonstrate by bringing a snowball into chamber.

And even if it's not... It's still pollution and we're eating/breathing more s*it everyday.

I prayed about the freezing ice storm heading directly for us. I was especially concerned about heavy ice breaking down my bamboo and cutting power. Lord answered my prayer and gave us only a light dusting of snow.
