Morning BroDad.
Good luck finding a pirate in Kerrville on a Sunday morning. Long John Silvers?

My sister is reporting things are returning to bearable in the middle of nowhere OK. I am glad the winter is letting up some. It was brutal for many.

Morning Doc, Al, Mick, Jeff, Bill, Russ, Rick, Chris, and Chuck. 22 degrees and cloudy. Supposed to get snow today.

Gonna get Sherri a new one as well.

Sad part is I was an hour away, bright sunny day and thought I would go sightseeing. Mistake.
Yeah that sucked. It started dumping about 2 hours away so I suited up for the last stretch. It got ugly and dark fast. Then the dirt road. I was just laughing to myself while dodging deep puddles and sliding around on the gravel/mud. Nothing more I could do than say "Oh well....." The bike was loaded super heavy too.

Another vote for the HD rain gear. I've put it to the test, I can tell you that. It hasn't failed me. I bought mine online from House of Harley online. It's local to me, but the internet price was really good. Much less than in store.

I recommend an Alaskan Leathers sheepskin. It stays put with elastic straps and it makes a comfortable seat even more comfortable. Keeps it cool too.

Re-morning, guys.
Hair cut, shower and shave. I'm ready to face the day. Oh yeah, more coffee.

I’ve got some of those for the King but another feature of the cycle shades is the helmets on the seat don’t get hot too.
