I hate rain. I prefer snow! 
Weather forecast for Belgium:
Light Drizzle
Humidity: 93%
Why do I have to go to school by bike?

Now I know where did you get all that time you spent building pedals and improving your technique... |

Actually, that is completely true. This culture pretty much shuts down and goes indoors for 8 months of the year. Perfect for pedal building 
The only challenge is the drill and heavier tools are in the garage, and that isn't heated... |

I grew up in -40 winters.. Long johns are your friend! It's not fun but you learn to adapt (and to plug in your cars at night)
The reverse is true as well.. since moving to Southern Ontario, I lost some of my cold resistance.
Laurie - if the pedals sell well, you can always add a couple infrared heaters to your garage..  |

| Hi from Toulouse! It's been a hell of a long drive from Madrid but it was funny trying to avoid mice and stags near the Pirineos, and fog and all that...Anyway, here we have -2 at night and a nice 9 C at noon. |

Yeah, completely right. This morning, my ears were really freezing off. -3 C is really cold here. |
