  1. Went out for my mid-week ride this morning and
    found it to be bloody cold! I had long sleeves
    and knee-warmers on. The nightly minimum has
    dropped by 10 degrees in 3 days after months
    of balmy mornings.

    I've just glad that daylight saving has ended
    so it wasn't pitch black as well.

    I don't like winter - you get either cold or
    rain and sometimes both. Yuk.

    Well, I agree with the sleeping better sentiment. My problem
    is that we didn't get a chance to get used to the cold. 6deg min last
    night. The flip side of nice long summer is a rapid descent into
    winter!

    I just can't get over the fact that about 2 weeks ago we were
    contending with 43C rides home..
