Yowza, that was a cold one. An unseasonal (sort of) cold front moved through and I had to change plans. I couldn't ride out to Alpine because it was snowing there. So, I made for Soda Springs, ID. Temperatures ranged from 36 to 44 all day. Whew! That was chilly. The day started with about 50 miles of nice twisties along the Salmon river then straightened out for the run across southern Idaho. Have to like the 80 MPH speed limit on the interstate - except when you're freezing your boy parts off. One of the lifesavers I have is a tall V-Stream windshield that when in the up position moves most of the air over my helmet. Almost like turning on a heater in cold weather. Woke up this morning to a frosty bike. I'll wait until it warms a bit, then off to Salt Lake City.
