Had our first frost already. This is a bad omen for the motorcycling season. Here's a picture of the saddle of the ST3 Thrusday morning. Not impressed.
Fortunately the weekend was decent and we managed to put on some miles in the mountains. Had to break out the heated gloves and grips though. (mmmmmm, warrrrrrm

Frost already?
A sure sign that the 2nd prime time riding of the season is coming. No bugs slattering up the faceshield, no sweating in heavy gear, no cops lurking on sideroads waiting for unexpecting prey.
Woo-hoo!

The rains have returned to Seattle.
Don't know how long they'll stay, could be until next July.
Hopefully we'll get a little 'indian summer' before they really sock things in.

Wow ZED, that looks like moss on your seat. When was the last time you rode it?
Maybe you should park it on the south side of the building.

Well, lets see, that was Thursday, wimped out on the Wed. due to pooring rain, so I guess it was Tuesday. Put another 1300km on this past weekend just in case it was the last one. over 10,000km in the first month on the new Ducati and counting.
Glad to hear you're sending some of that nice weather our way Nitro! They're forecasting snow flurries on Wed.
I was hoping to make my big
comback on the track Wed. evening, but we'll see.

Frost hit at least one of the lower 48 Friday/Saturday, too. Folks at the Vernon County Fair did well to stay close to the ani-mules that night!

I leave the bikes in the garage so I can't do the frost on the bike seat thing. But I can do is plug in the heated gear and ride.

Keep sending the warm thoughts this way! Hopefully the temperatures will follow. I'm not psyched up for this yet!
