I just went for an "after dinner" ride with my wife. I had on a hooded sweatshirt and while waiting for my wife I took a spin around our road (a 1/2 mile circle). When I got back to the house I ran in and grabbed my leather jacket too.

It was 35 degrees when I rode to work this morning. I couldn't get warm the rest of the day. I wouldn't mind if it warmed up a few degrees.

Been riding pretty much every afternoon since Wednesday...hasn't been bad at all. Went solo last night for a while....LOL, fight with girlfriend, me time. But yeah this weekend, or at least at the moment, doesn't seem to be very good weather wise.

Although and as much as I love the T shirt ride thing if it dries up I WILL be going out.....with or without the beast.
