Today's ride..

Yamerhaw · 10-18-2009, 10:57 PM

Went out for a few hours on the bike today, when i got home it was 34 degrees! Was wearing thick furry gloves, wool socks, thermals, jeans, and rain pants(for wind breaking) t shirt, hoodie, Columbia ski coat!! didnt get too cold besides my knees and fingers, gonna look into some heated gloves..

side note: GSXR 1000 does not like heavy throttle inputs on 34 degree pavement!

He was up in higher elevations (mountains) the high in my area was 58 but once the sun goes down it's pretty cold here!

Still. Without the wind here it was 60s but the wind really cooled it off.

I'm one to talk, watched football, washed truck, took F4I out for about 10 miles, realized I left my wallet and license at home so I came back home and never went back out.
