For reference, I have asthma, joint pain, social anxiety, and depression.
Exercise is great, yeah, but ADHD and capitalism make it difficult to schedule, plan for, adapt, and undergo.
The parasomnia means I can't guarantee being rested enough to drive to class on time.
I think technically you're not supposed to cycle either, if you're not rested / sober enough, but I take mild issue with that.
A bicycle is NOT capable of causing as much damage as a damn car, even a tiny Smart ForTwo car.
(Obv this won't help if you have severe joint issues, unsafe roads, or lack storage for it, but still. Fantastic commute option, personally. Just needs a rain canopy that somehow survives harsh English winds and we'd be laughing all the way to the bank. Of a very pretty river.)
Cycling to work and a swim in the lake on the way. Air 4°C, water ~8°C.
Guess need to delete now then the hashtag 'winterswimming'.
Mit dem Velo zur Arbeit und unterwegs ein Bad im See. Luft 4°C, Wasser ~8°C.
Muss jetzt wohl dann die Hashtags 'Winterschwimmen' und 'Kaltbaden' löschen.

Cycling to work and a swim in the lake on the way. Air 0°C, water 6°C, no wind, calm water.
Wondered this morning if I skip swimming. It was OK then.
Mit dem Velo zur Arbeit und unterwegs ein Bad im See. Luft 0°C, Wasser ~6°C, windstill, Wasser ruhig.
Dachte zuerst, heute das Bad auszulassen. Es war dann ganz gut.
Good morning.
Cycling to work and a swim in the lake on the way. Air 0°C, water ~7°C, Bise (a cold, dry wind).
Finally, I could see the mountains again.
Guten Morgen.

Endlich zeigen sich die Berge mal wieder.
28 F & 20mph headwinds (-2C&32kph). I swapped the cargo bars over to Big Pink and put a Jones riser H bar on the fatbike. I’m happy to report that the aero position on the H bars really works.
Big pink bike. Little pink schoolhouse.

Returned 24 hours earlier from 3 weeks in tropical climate. Walking into the lake was a challenge today.

Bin seit 24 Stunden von drei Wochen in den Tropen zurück. In den See zu gehen war heute herausfordernd.

The #Frostpendeln2024 season closes with 2,246 km (1,395 mi) over 74 trips from Nov. 1 to Feb. 28. The community and enthusiasm of @frostpendeln are so motivating and uplifting. A big Thank You to Tobi and the other organizers who make this happen. I look forward to next season. Perhaps there will be a team for North America?

Fast 600 km weniger als letztes Mal habe ich zum #frostpendeln beigetragen.
Das liegt unter anderem daran, dass ich eine kürzere winterfeste Strecke entdeckt habe. Aber ohne die 47 Fahrten, die es dann geworden sind, wäre die Weltlage um mich herum noch viel schlechter auszuhalten gewesen.
Herzen gehen raus ans @frostpendeln -Team
Die Schneeglöckchen in voller Blüte. Zeit für das letzte Frostpendeln in diesem Winter Schön war's
