Took my bike out for a december ride today.

55 degrees on December 5th...yea I'll ride!

Took the bike to school, including an extended lunch that happened to run halfway into one of my classes...sorry prof.

By the time I left to come home...40 degrees, foggy as ****, and drizzling...WTF?!

Got home and walked in shivering and the old man looked up from his crossword and said "well son, that's what you get for riding in December"

Fkin old timers and their wisdom

 

Well at least you got home with no damage. I took mine out for a short ride and ended up running over a damn board I couldn't avoid.
I checked the bike a little while after I got home and now I have 2 flats.

 

Better than not riding in December.

 

Agree! I rode for five glorious hours yesterday, enjoy it while it last.

 

Wow, glad to hear ya made it home before they went completely flat!!....and yea its december and i put em away for awhile yesterday, the cold will be here by the end of the week!!

 

I hear rumours that those blokes in Oz ride in December, so what's the problem?

 

Damn that's a kick in the *****

 

I don't mind riding is bad weather I just hate the cleaning.

 

Question is even with the cold and drizzle, did you enjoy yourself anyway?

 

It wasn't a pleasure cruise, but I always enjoy being on the bike.

It was just a funny scene walking back in the house. My old man in his sweats with his feet up doing the crossword, me in wet leather with numb fingers.
