So, based on some involuntary field testing detailed in the thread linked below, I thought it would be good to update this discussion....
OK, no burning involved actually, sorry to disappoint.:topsy_turvy: About a week ago I was out for a nice long day ride (450ish miles). About...
I had some time after work yesterday and decided to make a portion of this ride. I went 151 to 56 then south on the BRP and back east on 60 to rt...
I wouldn't worry about it too much. Dumb thing to do but you know that. I have to believe that riding like you have new tires until they have...
VTX1800. They compliment a VFR nicely and have enough torque to still bring a smile to your face. Reliable as can be and comfortable all day...
Nice...I could pretty easily meet at Churchville or west of Harrisonburg somewhere depending on which way you make the loop. I am pretty used to...

Thanks for the great suggestions so far! I think I am going to look for better boots and gloves first, and pants later but not too far away....
