Chilly Ride

Chilly, windy day in the low 40s with mixed precip. in the higher elevations. This was one tough ride, and in spite of how silly those booties look, I think I'll need invest in some for such days. The rest of my body was cozy, while my left foot was frozen solid. Why just the left? Gail's theory is that it had to do with wind direction...good guess.

This was only my second time climbing Ringwood from the Ellis Hollow side, and it's quite a challenge, particularly the last two climbs. Feeling good now, though it was really hard to get out of the door.
