Neah! According to weather.com it'll be 23-20 degrees between 6-9 PM!
It was 19-21 degrees on Sunday between 8:30-11 AM when we rode!

It will suck big donkey, but it'll make for stories to tell your grandchildren, if you don't freeze off your... and are able to have any children!  :o

I should have read this post. Now wonder I did not see anyone else. I'm still glad I went out, I needed it. Got some cool pics of the frozen creek. As long as you kept moving it was not too bad. When I got home though, it felt like someone smacked my toes with a hammer.

I snuck out for a noon ride, and yea it was COLD, but not too bad once my body warmed up... That is until I was flying down the hill by Gorgas Lane and hit a solid ice patch covered in a dusting of snow, more like hiding in the snow. I rag-dolled down the trail in a heap, bouncing my frigid limbs off numerous rocks. The grand finale was my bike pile-driving onto my head.   :(  Needless to say all parts of my body are bruised and sore. I popped 4 advil and soaked in a hot bath with Epsom salts... Now it's time for bed. I'm afraid how I will feel when I wake up... But I will be out tomorrow if at all possible!!!
