It snowed the rest of the way home till I got about a mile and a half from my house then it stopped and there was nothing on the ground.
What time of day was it? Low spots can be much colder as cold air sinks. I know I feel it all the time when I ride my ElliptiGO. It can be 10* colder a mile from my house because it's a low spot and the cold settles there, especially at night.

It's predicted to be 70* here today with no snow in the forecast for the next ten days.

It was Saturday night. Cool spots are well, cool! I remember when I used to ride my motorcycle at night there were a few areas with cool spots always thought it was neat.

Still get that in the MG since the occupants are a lot more exposed than in the S2000.

Depends on what activities you are engaging in. Sometimes you need pants sometimes you don't.

Yeah, it's more noticeable after the sun sets. One of my ElliptiGO rides in California has me riding from 1,402 feet elevation at the highest point, toward the beach on Aliso Creek trail, where the path ends, and the lowest spot is about 49 feet elevation. The far end, closest to the beach, is a canyon and it gets cold in the fall and winter down there, before I turn around and head back up.





On this ride I started in the middle of Aliso Creek trail, at Heroes Park in Lake Forest, and climbed on the path north-east to the high point. I turn around at the high point and go past my starting point at the park, to the lowest spot before I turn around and ride back to the park I parked my car at.


^This is from the high point at about 1,402 feet, and it's really on Santiago Canyon Road, a bit farther than the top end of the Aliso Creek trail. I took this on April 29, 2021.



^This is the low end where it's about 49 feet. This is Aliso Creek and it runs into the ocean not far from here. I took this on May 1, 2021.

What do you have to do to finish? Are you purchasing it?
