I live in Saskatchewan, Canada, where it was recently -50C with the windchill (-38 absolute). A friend of mine posted this to his Facebook page, which made me smile (and wish I didn’t have to drive):
You can’t see it,
but here on my bike,
under my -40 rated boots and two layers of socks,
long underwear, jeans, and bib snowpants,
undershirt, sweater, vest, and winter shell,
scarf, balaclava, ski goggles and helmet,
I’m smiling.
Because I’m almost warm.
And you’re stuck in traffic.
