Today mid fifties very strong wind. Did 137 miles on the Road Glide. Saw 6 other bikes out in the three counties that I rode through. 5 if you don't count a Burgman.

Didn't see any one else today on my commute to and from work. Roads were wet when I left, and rained on the way home.

Wednesday I rode 170 miles. Never saw another bike. Maybe I'm just stupid, cause half that was in a dense fog.

Well, cool in fahrenheit ,yes. I do wonder why so many people stop riding just because they need to dress a little warmer. I am not going to ride much longer, because of the deer in the dark, but I think I am going to have withdrawal because I really enjoyed my first year on a Harley, but as it gets colder, I do miss my Chevy truck.

You got me beat. I got 37 miles and if it is cold and raining, no way. But I do enjoy cold temps and a blue sky.

I sold the Suburban ( 'cause it sat for months at a time,) 4 years ago. She's got our only car. Sometimes I miss 4 wheels when commuting, but not too often.
