How's your weather
« on: April 09, 2012, 09:46:06 PM »
It's been just great here in N CA - lots of sunshine - perfect riding weather - the foothill are all green - in the 70"s - we have a wet front moving in for 3 or 4 days days but that just might be our last one for the year - We go months with out rain here - I actually miss it sometimes but not to much!   Tom

After a crap summer we had perfect autumn weather for Easter - clear crisp mornings and temps in the low 20's. Perfect riding weather.

Low 20s... that's, of course, centigrade which translates to something like almost 70f.

It's been mostly rotten here - rainy, windy and cold. But the last few days have been really nice, sunny and warm. It gives me hope spring might actually happen this year. Of course, there's a standing joke it'll be nasty till after the Rose Festival in May. Way too often we might get a few weeks of nice weather before the festival but, guaranteed, it'll turn nasty for that week of fun.  :D

I think it's particularly rotten that the longest day, and the turning point where they're getting shorter, is about the time summer shows up.  >:(

When it does show up.  Last year we never got a summer.  

I can live with it now.  I bicycled yesterday, rode the R65 today, will try to bicycle the rest of the week.  I ride both in the rain obviously, too, but I certainly prefer dry weather.
