Frazz by Jef Mallett for October 26, 2013

This year hasn’t been like that around here, it’s been 40s-50s for the highs and lows and it wasn’t till these week we had frost at all but my poor garden stopped growing 4 weeks ago when when it started the cool temps :(

AH, the Layers, I remember them well:

Gore-Tex, (Jacket & Overpants)Lycra, (Jersey & Tights)Wool, (Cause we got REAL COLD Winds)Polypropylene, (To wick-away the perspiration)Wool/Cotton blend, (anti-chafing socks)

and THAT was just for a 25 minute commute!

Hey, in Michigan the weather is easy to predict, if it’s warm it’s gonna be cold, if it’s dry, it’s gonna be rainy….and that’s just between 8 and 9 AM.

What can I say? I like Florida!

The temperature swung a lot where i lived too. We had a teacher who in the morning (when it was in the 30’s) opened all the windows. By afternoon (60’s, maybe 70) she have everything closed up tight.

Frost here in southern S. Carolina this morning. Kinda early for this area.

I ride my motorcycle almost all year here in Maine. I do layers. And this strip reminds me very much of my days here. 30s in the morning and 60s when coming home.

Near 80 this weekend in eastern California, but a killing freeze predicted Tuesday. Collecting blankets for my tomatoes!

If it gets so cold that I need more than two layers up top and leg warmers, then I’m not riding.

I live in Phoenix. What is this thing you call weather?

I used to commute 36 miles in 10˚ temps. I had an insulated, 40 mile, suit. If I had to ride farther than 40 miles, I’d of taken the car. :-)
