Wait...you guys don't have to wear a jacket in the summer?


Oh right, we don't have this "summer" thing here...

Road alot last winter too. I had to bust out the jacket this past Sunday to go watch the United Ride for 9/11 (did it last year, no more group rides with strangers). It warmed up around 2 pm And I had nowhere to put the jacket. I hate this transition time of year.

Where do you put your jacket when you are getting gas?

Left out yesterday for a 100 mile cup of coffee. The DD is 2 miles from my house. I take all the back farm roads to get there. Usually 100 miles.

Threw the denim in my bad. Had on a long sleeve shirt. Half way into it I pulled over and put on the jacket. 97 miles later had my coffee and it was now dark. The 2 miles home felt like 50. It was cold. Been dropping near the 40's here.

Here is up on Lake Erie.

80's high and 60's low here lately, just about perfect.
Yesterday morning I saw where it was 36 in Bismark.
Cheer up gang, it could be worse where you are!
