Showers with possible local hail. A mostly cloudy day with fresh and gusty southerly winds.
Precis: Showers. Local hail. Gusty southerlies.
No hail today, which was great! But it as far as the thermometer went it was a TGD* cold. Which as you already know is considerably colder than DGD*, which in turn is lower than SGD*. It hasn't been a NGD* for a long time and now with the onset of winter, it feels like it will be a while before that happens. The ride to work was quick and smooth despite the cold. Again it was a wet morning, no worries about going over in the wet when on the trike.
*TGD = Triple Glove Day, other wise known as jeez it's bloody freezing
*DGD = Double Glove Day, also known as, jeez its a bit cold
*SGD = Single Glove Day, oft described as, It's a bit of a cool today
*NGD = No Glove Day, other wise known as a bloody hot day
Today was a try a trike day at work and I had a couple of people who had a go in our car park.
They seem to like it.
This was what Matt said - Too much fun for words, sign me up!
This is what Lois said - Surprisingly easy. Even for a non bike rider!Another car free day experience.
Matt's story
Started with a 10 minute work to the train station (a bit chilly but that just got me walking faster to get to the station). Arrived and waited 2-4 minutes and hoped aboard the stopping all stations towards Flinders Street Station. (no dramas - can't believe the train ran to schedule). A quick change and onto Glenferrie Station (on an express train to boot). Getting there was easier than the usual stop start of the traffic. Coming home at 6 pm via reverse trip was thankfully uneventful (did have a 12 minute wait at Flinders Street Station for a train but it happens). Home to the heater to warm up. Overall- surprisingly quick and not to crowded.
