Default Went on my 1st Ride in 2013 Today!
Today we had temps in the lower 50's so I mounted up on my trusty 2012 FLHX & went for a nice hour long blast today! It was absolutely wonderful to be back in the saddle again! .............

Wind was nasty though! We were in Scituate and eventually wound up in South County but got blown all over the place. Glad you were able to get out though. Next couple of days are supposed to be better. I feel a sick day comin' on...

Bought my bike three months ago and just had the first ride today. We have had a long cold winter in Wisconsin too. It sure is nice to get back out there. I guess it's supposed to rain the next five days. I hope it's nice out next weekend.

The weather has been great down here. Almost 80 last couple of days. Before I know it the weather will be too hot to ride. I do ride if its between 40 and 95. I'm a sissy I guess.
