Should have, could have, would have.
It was about 34 when I left this morning, should hit 36!
I didn't know we were getting a warmup.
I probably missed the window for awhile.

It sucks that I'm inside working till dark, I sure would love to have that sun beat on me while riding home. That 5 degree difference would mean allot. I gues i should invest in warmer clothes. It's about 30 now and were due in for quite a snowstorm tomorrow here in NJ

I dont like to ride under 50. So I envy you guys who can. We are expecting 6 to 12 inches of snow tonight so I dont think I will be riding much at all for a while.

Yesterday 10 am left home at 36 degrees rode to the body shop and rode home at 3;00 45 degrees. Man colorado sucks it is just like antartica, dont move here. Oh yea today probably 50 degrees, cool breeze though.
