Default Great Day For A Ride

My son and I hooked up a LED light kit on his bike(Springer Softail, full custom job)from Best Buy and then cruised all over Myrtle Beach in sunny 67 degree weather. I rode my Chopper Blue and Pearl Silver Road King after putting in a new battery first thing this AM! Tons of bikes out, nice to see a famous biker gang at the Trump Rally! Full support for a guy that takes no s--t!

Buddy and I had a nice 5 hour ride today in NC and Va. Mid 50's and nice in the foothills but got pretty cold in the mountains. Was glad I had my heated gear. When I was just about home, close to dark I was sitting at a light where there is a bank thermometer. While waiting at the maybe 2 minute light the temperature dropped 3 degrees.

My buddy lives in MB and was on that ride. He sent a few pics and it looked like a great day to ride. Nice and sunny at the SBB. Can't wait to get back down there for bike week in May.

Bright sunshine, blue sky, the minus 30 temps put in the suction to the day!

I got a couple short rides in this past week. Sunny with temps in the mid 50s made for a nice crisp ride. Working nights this next week so won't be able to ride again until after the 22nd, but looking forward to it if I get a chance.
