Default Christmas ride

Got my annual christmas polar bear ride in! About 75 miles, snug as a bug with my gerbing heated gear. Had to watch out for icy ramps with the amount of rain we had on christmas eve in the shenandoah valley.

Gerbings gear opens up a whole new world. I went for a ride last weekend for quite awhile and it got chilly so I put on my jacket and gloves and was toasty the rest of the day. The coldest i've ridden in is 18 deg. I usually don't care to ride that cold though.

If he were to update his Boom software to the latest version, he would only get the "OK" also.

I don't remember what exact version they did this, but one of the updates changed it from showing actual pressure to "OK".
