According to the weather forecast today may well be one of the last ice days. It looks like next week temperatures might at last go over the 0 degree C marker. Anyway, tonight saw another -12 degrees and when I left around noon it was still -6 degrees C. The forest lay calm and still white waiting for me. I crossed a multitude of bikers completing the Zoenk organised ride before I came on my lap and was on my own. Except for the occasional runner, a lost mountainbiker and a couple of walkers I could enjoy peace and calm on my laps. I chose for an 8K lap and did that 4 times. With around 120 heightmeters a lap and some singletrack this was far from easy. But there was no rush and I could enjoy the passing of the trails whilst practicing skills and honing fitness. When I arrived home I had an average temperature of -3 degrees C and my heartrate was well down with an average of 122bpm.
