Default Rode to work today

First time this year. Was a bit cold this morning, but wasn't bad on the way home.
Hopefully this is a real sign of spring [8D]

shu,
Yes, it was a cool ride this morn, but at 11 we were all the way up to 40. Was glad I wore the FF. Should have a nice ride home at 7.
Spring has to come to Ohio sometime.

Shu, I love ya Dude, but I gotta rub it in.

I took yesterday today and tomorrow off cause it been in 70-80's......Been riding and tinkering on both bikes all winter except for a few bad days.

Glad you finally got to ride her to work, but if I was you and finally had a chance to ride I would have canned work and been really hard to find till well after dark

Hey Shu, just got home from work, rode the bike of courseand i couldnt wait to get into the Cold A/C. Man i was burning up in my jacket. I hate to admit this, but im really tempted to start riding in a short sleeve tshirt, just like all the old geezers on the Big Twins do.

I'll have you know this old geezer always wears leather from head to toe......The secret is to not stop-just keep riding to stay cool.

Brian,

The next time the wife wants to argue, put her out in the rain....then crank the tunes and park your bike in the middle of the living room and polish it while you watch the chicks on MTV.

You can let her back inside once she gets her head straight.....If you get lucky, some dumbazz will pick her up and attempt to housebreak her for himself.

I would be glad if the weather just picked something and stuck with it. I'm getting sick of one day it’s nice the next it’s rainy or overcast and windy. I just hope that the forecast is right for this weekend high 70's and sunny on Saturday and mid 80's and sunny on Sunday.

I got one of these last Saturday andso far it seems towork well for this time of year.
