Jeez, for the past month, the weather forecasts have been off by 20 degrees.
Last Friday I took a peak at this week to decide when to ride - All sunny and high 70's.
Now, as if somebody in the forecast office decided they didn't like that, took a vote and changed the temperature.
I'm trying to decide if I want to ride this week after skipping last week. It may not be worth it to ride in the mud with my V brakes.

I thought Weather people were never wrong at predicting the weather? :roflol:
Maybe it's a sign, you should get a bike with disc brakes and ditch the V-brakes so you can ride in the mud? :ne_nau:
Seems like that's the only sort of riding mother nature is allowing these days. Wet and muddy.:ride:

You know what they say about the weatherman. It's the only job where you can be wrong 50% of the time and keep your job.
. It may not be worth it to ride in the mud with my V brakes.
There was a time when people only had V brakes and still went riding in the mud and didn't use it as an excuse not to go out :cold:.. Just saying :afro:

Well, I'm growing impatient. I just wish this Global Cooling would end so those guys could finally be right.

I never paid attention past 3 days when 5 day forecasts were all the rage. At least that way their being wrong doesn't bother me much unless I put off a Monday commute to ride later in the week only to have that rained/snowed out as well.

Oh how sad. I think roads are slip. That is why I can't drive my car so fast.
