LOL. Hot? 80’s are a cool breeze. Try riding over 95 degrees.. Florida is great about 9 months out of the year for riding… but come end of May through August it’s hot.

About 55 to work and back with a stop to the cigar shop and the Capstone Grille for dinner before getting home.

Will be heading to the Pokey Dot restaurant in Fairmont West Virginia for lunch tomorrow.

605 miles today- needed to send a set of flywheels in for servicing, and it was slightly cheaper to ride up & back than to pay FedEx/UPS- gave me a chance to say hi to an old acquaintance, and get some sun.
Al in all. 10/10 day

I hear you. Three weeks ago it was still snowing. The change has been drastic and mid 80's doesn't happen often at our elevation. I lived on the East Coast for many years and have ridden in much higher temps than here. Just not acclimated to these temps yet. Still had snow at my Wy. home just a week and half ago. Our riding season is short.

Wow! There wasn't much in Fairmont when we stayed there for an SU-WV FB game. A crappy two story Holiday Inn. And within walking distance of said dump was a Waffle House and one bar, if I remember right.

And I guess the Pokey Dot restaurant.

But man of man....the roads in WV are twisty heaven!

Yes the roads are for the most part good and the scenery is tremendous.

We did 217 miles today there and back and I got to actually use the sides of my tires for a change.

295 miles yesterday on the 3 wheeler. All highway miles. I'm racking the mile to get my service performed and get my butt conditioned for big mile days. 1200 miles to go before the end of the month. Having goals is a good thing.
