It's going to be a chilly and windy ride home, and in the dark for the first time this season.

Supposed to be close to 20F tomorrow morning.  I think I'll wear my heated coat tomorrow.  A few more days on the bike before parking her.

I did, but I went to court this AM in my GF's car (different county, and my heated gloves aren't working).

Got home and switched to the bike.  By then it was near 40, so I didn't even turn on the vest.  No traffic either, so I got here almost before I had a chance to get cold

it was a balmy 31 deg. when i left the house this morning and only had to turn up the gerbings only a 1/4 way to stay toasty. my fingers did get a little cold since i didn't have the heated gloves on.
did see only one other bike out and it was a H/D

Ghed, it was a glorious ride in and back today.  I think a week off the bike is more than humanly endurable.  I didn't even have to don the cold weather gear today, just the normal ATTGAT.

Thanks! Funny thing is, I've put the mower to bed for the season already, but not the bike. Guess that means I'm a fair-weather mower.  Crazy

I was good once the sun came up all the way, but damn it was chilly before then.  This afternoon is looking fabulous.
