I use a LaPera bare bones (very nice quality) for short hops. It sits me way lower and a bit further back. For longer hauls or for when I want comfort I bring out the big ole Mustang. I installed 13" Progressive shocks in the rear. She never got uncomfortable after that.

The UV index is at 9. That's similar to hanging out inside of the cooling towers at Turkey Point. I'm wearing a thick layer of sunscreen and a long sleeve t-shirt.

I haven't even started. I just got back from taking my parents to the Dr. The old man is slowing me down.
I need to get a good sweat going anyway.
