I'm not a big wash an wax kinda guy, I ride everyday early early spring till late late fall..no matter rain shine \\; but older I get, the more I hate the heat.. Lost a lung a few years back.. just can't seem to catch my breath when it's that hot.... I clean up the scooter, detail it when I first get it out in the spring.. If it see's another wash that season \\;chances are \\;somebody else did it for me.. LOL
I think I would actually do it again that season if it hit 113...
Blessings

i think they should make a helmet with a layer of blue ice in it that you keep in the freezer and through it on in the morning for a cool ride

What a great idea! Replace all that concussion preventing cushion material with an ice cold ROCK.
Why didn't someone think of that before?

RE: 113 degrees today what do you do to stay cool?
Here in coastal Orange Co., So Cal, it doesn't get that hot, but at my sister/BIL's place in Hesperia (high desert) it's easily 105 every day July-September. Only ride out there in the fall. Even at the office in Monterey Park, it's hot now and I rode the Sporty in today and am going out for lunch soon. Long-sleeved T-shirt, boots/jeans, \\;and silver full-face with the shield up.
