Getting Chilly

There has been a definite change in the weather here in the last couple of days. Still no rain (I think I can count the really rainy days since we arrived on 2 hands), but the temperature dropped from 16 degrees on Monday to 4 degrees today. We wouldn't normally think twice about riding outside at these temperatures but as we are STILL living out of a suitcase we only really have our Summer/Autumn bike clothing available to us.
It has been 3 months now since we shipped our life belongings and we are hoping it arrives by December. After 20 minutes of adding layers to layers to more layers, we headed out for a gorgeous ride. Clear blue skies & a nice and easy leg spin as Winter training should be and it was great. I was just about warm enough but it might have been different on a windier day.
The forecast looks pretty much the same into next week so as long as it doesn't get any colder we should get a few more of these rides in before we reach the extent of our clothing limits!
