Morden ride

Good day for a bike ride. Better day to jump in the lake after the ride. 34 C. with a humidex rating of 44 C while we were out. No wonder I felt like my head was going to explode. Even better day to get together for post-ride dogs and beers. Happy Birthday Jonny S.

Tuesday am ride: Tour de Nick's. Ride out to St. Fancis Xavier and beyond. Breakfast at Nicks Inn on the way back. Will confirm time etc. at post-ultimate gathering.

Average weather in Moab:

December: High 46 F; Low 21 F
January: High 41 F; Low 20F

Poison Spider Bicycles has this to say about the matter:

Winter mountain biking is Moab's best kept secret. Moab winters are mild and generally sunny. Snow storms are infrequent and accumulation usually melts within a day. Warm gloves, a rain shell, and a light hat that fits under your helmet will make the day. Conditions are great and you've got the trails to yourself.

This is follow-up from a conversation that took place in Jonny S's backyard this evening. It should be pretty easy to figure out what the topic was. To be continued . . . .
