    Road to work today

    Well I managed to get out there today with the VFR for a ride to work and home. It was a bit chilly this morning, but the electric gear kept me toasty. Ride home was dicey since I got held up at work till around 5:15pm and I only had my dark shield with me. Got home in one piece though.

    Legs were mighty tired from the Jennings track day trip Two4one and I took last weekend. I can't believe it's Friday and my left thigh is still sore!

    Anyone going to try to get out and ride a little this weekend? It's looking a bit chilly for that, but I figured I'd ask.

    I rode out to the Vancouver MC show today. It was near freezing but like you I have the gear. I commute year round and love it. No snow, I ride. Even -9C (14F) once

    It's never cold enough in San Diego to NEED heated gear (there've been a few times where I would have preferred it over layers).

    I'm about to go ride up north in prep for the meetup tomorrow, JR touring jacket (full of holes) with dry tech zip in liner, JR ballistic pants with zipped in dry tech, boots, gloves, full face. set
    Lame joke of the week:

    Why do Motorcycles want to fall at stops? Because they're two tired!
