Rode to work Tuesday, it was a clear cool morning. Pulled up in the work car park at 0545, and hands were stiff and hurting. News at 0800 said the temp at that time was -1.7C  The coldeat night in 4 years.

This is Perth people, we dont do - temps here.. :eek :eek :eek

July 2016 to September 2019 sees a 1.3oC drop in temp.  I though Climate Change predicated (not misspelt) a 1.3oC increase every 10 years (or something).
I know, I know- you can't compare Perth with Beaufort.  They have nothing in common.

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

It’s pointless looking at such a tiny amount of data.

BOM has some excellent resources here!

It's satire Lindsay.
If climate alarmists promote isolated instances as proof, I can spoof.

Early Feb, 2013. Hot day near Mt Isa, I made the mistake of riding without gloves in 42 degree temp.
Temp had reached 45 a few days earlier.

Hands peeled in one slab 4 days after photo was taken.
