Wanted to ride outside today but did not feel confident enough to ride in the hard snow. So I settled for a road ride with the Litespeed Obed. The roads were clear and most of the bikepaths as well so I could maintain good speed without risking to fall over some hidden ice patch. There was a strong and ice-cold wind blowing from the east and the temperature of -3 degrees C felt like a whole lot less. Once the wind was blowing in my back as I turned from Neervelp to Opvelp and Beauvechain, I warmed up a bit. Making a loop over Hamme Mille , Nethen and Sint Joris Weert I finished off my rode over the Zoete Waters and Vaalbeek. Almost 1h30 in the freezer, that is more than enough.

When I got home I switched shoes and took off my helmet for a cooldown ride - or should that be warmup?? - on the Tacx Satori. Half an hour settled me up quite nicely. My limbs were back to their normal temperature. Especially the hand on which I fell last october has a tendency to become quite cold when riding outside.
