Turkey Burn Report: Part 2

We went full "Winter Mode" after Thanksgiving here.

As I stated yesterday, I figured I had something like 30+ miles in for the Turkey Burn from that adventure. I couldn't start until after lunch, and as you saw, I didn't get home until dark. These days, your Sunlight is limited around here. 

Then the weather went down the toilet. We got a lot of wind on Friday, and I had family obligations, then I had to work Saturday and that cut into my time. Add in a last minute crunch on a couple of writing projects and a big feature on the blog coming up for this Saturday and I was pressed for any free time as it was.

Sunday morning, very early, it snowed. Then it got really cold. So now I am not looking at riding anything but my Ti Muk 2 with some 45NRTH pogies attached. 

Between commuting to work and some "garbage miles" around the neighborhood, I figured I had pushed in ten more miles, maybe a couple more. I rode a bike everyday, I just didn't have very good weather or the time to get into a longer ride. 

I'm probably 15 miles short of a metric century, but it is what it is. I tried, and I didn't get there. I have to consider that the wind chill has been in the single digits and the Sun doesn't stay up past 4:30pm for long now and well..... All was not lost, as I got out on a bike everyday and that is better than not getting on a bike. 

I did get a few people to join me on this Virtual Turkey Burn idea though and those reports have been coming in already. I may get some more before the deadline at midnight tonight. We will see. I'll start running those reports starting this coming Monday, December 4th. 

Stay tuned.....
