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.   Sad

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  Smile )

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!   Banana

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

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. Bigok

Glad to hear you're sending some of that nice weather our way Nitro!  They're forecasting snow flurries on Wed. EEK!  I was hoping to make my big  Lol comback on the track Wed. evening, but we'll see.

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.  Lol
