Saturday Gravel Ride was Cold

Doug called me yesterday for a ride. I hadn't been on gravel yet this year and I can't remember the last ride I finished without artificial light. From 144th, we headed out Fort St west to 216th. Doug turned a 32x15 while I spun 32x20. I need to buy a couple other cogs. Little nippy on the fingers, otherwise nice until we turned north on 216. Then I wasn't a happy camper. Going east on Ida had some pretty views. Forgot the pic phone, but I wouldn't have removed my glove to snap pics anyway.

We pedaled to the shop to see Tim building up his Niner One 9. Need to get some pics of his sweet build! 15 miles in the sunshinny cold and that was enough for my fingers.
