Had a nice ride today. Did about 100 miles. It was 42 degrees out.

Even though I rarely ride on very cold days I would never think of having half a year's insurance as there are some nice days even in the winter. I have two bikes, an electroglide with a windsheild & a Sportster without one. If it's under 50 I won't ride the Sportster. Last Wendsday night it was in the low 40's and I went to my MC meeting (Blue Knights Chapter NY X). It turned out that with about 50 guys at the meeting I was the only one who ventured to ride there!!

Dropped into the 30s yesterday and this morning. Yesterday wasn't too bad at 38F. At 33F this morning, it was painful on the bad left hand/fingers & the bad right knee. Old fart reminders of young stud wounds sucks!

Dropped down in the upper 30's here is S.A. this morning. Took a little while for the feeling to come back to my legs after I got of the bike but its all good.

Time to get me some of them famous or should I say infamous @zzlezz chaps.
