I seriously considered resting my bike for the rest of winter because when I got to school today my hands were painful, stiff and numb. I couldn't feel nor bend my fingers and they were so painful and immobile I felt like crying. It was that bad. My fingers never felt that way before. I think it was -11 deg this morning and the wind wasn't even factored in yet. Or maybe I should try wearing double layers of gloves or go get ski gloves. I think I'd rather walk than let my hands suffer like that again. Yikes. Plus I woke up with a terrible sore throat. The cold wind wheezing into my lungs didn't help things. I should mask up when biking in the wind next time. It was only 5 minutes but felt like hell man.
