Below 40° This morning.... mid 50's this afternoon.... still riding. next week snow, cold and rain are predicted. for 2nd/3rd week of November, I'm pretty happy to still be riding!!

I feel like the season has just begun here.

Riding season is over for me temporarily. I have to replace a compensator and a broken Rotor cover here in the near future.

After that, riding season won't be over until I either sell the bike or drop dead!

Snow coming this weekend in the Madison area....but still riding today! Hope to get a few more days in but my cut off is 40 if the wind is blowing....

Sunny, no clouds and 78° with a high of 83° today. It a typical fall day in Texas.

Once upon a time, eons ago, some smart biker bastard looked at a heated blanket and thought "if only I could apply that to a jacket, gloves and pants". BOOM! Heated gear was born!

I don't know if it went down in that exact manner or not, but I have heated gear and can ride well below 20* as long as there isn't ice on the roads.

40* is nowhere NEAR time to stop riding. I can do 40* with chaps and glove liners.

I'll admit, for me, below 40° isn't fun to ride in. But I wear enough clothes when it above 40°, that I'm okay. The main body part that gets cold are my fingers but I have heated glove inserts that work fine...or they did the 2 times I've used them in 3 years.
