Stating the obvious

On Sunday I went for a ride around holden. According to accuweather, the real feel temperature was 15 degrees. When I left the house, my water bottle had water in. By the end of the ride, a layer of ice had formed.

I was only out for about 50min and rode about 14 miles. I honestly didn't think it would be enough time for ice to form. I didn't notice until I grabbed the bottle near the end to get a sip.

The worst part of riding in freezing weather is the effect of cold air on the lungs. Even though my torso and legs were warm, taking a deep breathe was tough. That cold air really does a number on the lungs.
