As with the rest of the country, South Carolina has had bizarre weather this week. I couldn’t resist throwing on a dress and boots (and shorts!) for a pre-Christmas grocery run before heading out of town. 

I’ll post more about riding in different weather, especially in January when things get interesting (at least for Southerners, who tend to forget what being cold feels like). But riding year round is really just a matter of preparation and attitude. Preparation (aka the right gear) will minimize swearing; a good attitude will let you laugh at yourself, embrace the situation, and most of all fully appreciate the good weather days.
