Cold

This is the current weather here:

(That's -20F and Feels Like -36F for you American folks)

I know there's been a lot of posts going around about how cold is too cold to ride. The answer is this. This is too cold to ride. I will go out to the barn after work, check that Kachina is still feeling warm under her hair and blanket, then I will feed her and go home to my warm couch. I am still fighting off a nasty flu that is on its third week so I am intentionally being a weeny about the cold and not subjecting my lungs to it any more than necessary. Next week is looking a lot warmer though so I am excited for that. Stay warm everyone :-)

  2. Yeah I probably would not ride if it was still in the positives and like 10 degrees lol

  3. It was 55 today and I was wearing a down jacket over my hoodie. Took it off to ride because let's not be ridiculous. I can't even fathom what temperatures in the negatives feel like, let alone that far down.

  4. I feel you. All of mine guys are wearing at least 3 blankets. And then of course my automatic waterer froze today. I’m so over these cold snaps!

  6. It seems that if I finally have the time to ride, it's too damn cold! If the weather is nice, I'm probably working. Ugh.
