Weather

The sleet and 35 mph driving wind makes the bike ride to and from the boathouse a lot of fun.  As nasty as it is outside it has benefitted me by giving me a new appreciation for a warm room, even the warming effect of the erg room.  It also makes a trip to the cafe every few days a real treat.  Yet another example of why Kiwis are so tough.  When the weather is like this they usually take out bigger boats instead of just staying in.
