Favorite Riding Oustide Air Temp
LONGGG Time reader, first time subscriber.
Just curious, what is everybody's favorite OAT (Outside Air Temp) to ride in?
It was 95 yesterday here in Vegas and it's only getting warmer. I love riding and lord knows the weather here you can realistically do it year round. But damn I felt like a Rotisserie Chicken, I think the WG was feeling it too (still coming out of hibernation), she ran like a raped ape on the ride home, wanted to get back in the Garage.
No windshield = Wind/Sun Burn, but damn I love to ride..

I have an 83 mile each direction trip to work (Levittown, PA to Allentown, PA) and am trying to figure out if I'm riding or driving tomorrow morning. Forecasted temps for the ride in are 48 degrees. I am leaning towards riding in but we'll see.
I think temps between 65 and 75 degrees is ideal, but that is just me

I like it when it's still cool enough for a hoodie. Plus the bike is happier when the temps and humidity are on the low side. Sunking, I'll be heading down that way tomorrow, but I'll be hitting sands casino instead, lol! Leaving Pottsville around 730ish so temps will be low 40's than it's back up 78 to hit up Hollywood for a few games. Glad I took Friday off!
