Took a little trip today, met a friend in Waynesville and then headed through Maggie Valley across Soco Gap into Cherokee and back. Wasn't to bad after my feet got completely numb. lol. Was a bit nippy. Thought about BB as I went through Maggie. All in all it was a nice ride, the X ate Soco up.

A little Cool

Still a little cool here today, I had to work on my tractor for about half the day, So I could use it the rest of the day. Sounds like you had a good trip though. Even cold, I'd rather be riding than working. GG

Tomorrow is hopefully my day to get out & put on maybe a few miles, suppose to git up-to the mid-50's. Will probably just here close around the bsf park.

T storms here just a bit ago, hail, and a pleasant 36 out right now. (-:

I rode to work tonight not bad, tomorrow morning it's going to be 28 degrees at 6:30 so it might get cold on 485.

Well I will say, Yes Sir I'm from the south, But it does get cold here. Tues. Low in my shop 17*. Big-X, Retro Rich, Goldsmith, They live alot farther down than me. I have almost the same weather as Hillsville VA. . GG

 

[Catoma]

It's going to be cold for sure cruising down 485, Hope you don't have to far to go.

 

[Goldsmith]

Man, I hope you got your shield on. My fingers would be solid ice(in good gloves). Dont shiver off the bike.

 

[Big-X]

I have Frank Thomas Stealth Aqua Roos and they do a good job, I still want heated gloves but just have a hard time paying that much. I may change my mind soon.

Looks like we back to our normal winter here, mid 70's. It was hard to stay at work knowing that my bike was in the parking lot.

Saturday its suppose to rain all day.

 

[Goldsmith]

I got a feeling you will change your mind in the morning. I want some E. gloves also.

Brrrrhhhhhhhh....

 

[Goldsmith]

LOL LOL LOL LOL man if I could bonk you in the head with the frying pan I would! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BMiracleTX]

I went for a ride today in nothing but a longsleeve t-shirt.....it is 77 deg here right now.....would hate to live somewhere where I can't ride all year long. I get antsy when the cold fronts hit here and it drops into the 30's. Can't imagine where some of you guys live.......

 

[Charlie D]

Almost ready to hit 50 here a little light sprinkles of rain, got the wool thermals on and a heavy sweatshirt, now for the wool socks heavy insulated jacket and boots as I head out, arctic gloves are in the bags so I am set.

 

[Big-X]

It was 29 this morning, it was not too bad except for the fact that yesterday was so nice I wore my half helmet, this moring I had decided I will never do that again...lol. I had to stop at Albermarle Road and warm up, I had my head & face covered but the tips of my ears were getting COLD...a little rewarming huddle beside the engine and the rest was fine.

 

[Bumbee]

I rode down to my Fav Leather shop today. Was 36 when I left, went ahead and baught chaps while I was there. They make all the difference. Then rode downtown Norfolk to meat the wife and kids for lunch. When I left the mall it was a nice 45 or so. Not too bad at all. I could have ridden all day. Tomorrow supposed to rain so no joy for a big ride tomorrow that alot of folks were planning on.

 

[Goldsmith]

This time of year if it is c old but not too cold and I know my return trip will be much colder I take a pullover baklava. Very thin but blocks the wind and keeps me warm. Just an oval cutout for the eyes. Only problem with it is that I feel like a bank robber or just someone up to no good in general.



Oh, did'nt get to ride, I had to go get tourtured by my accounttant. UGH!!! Painful this year.

 

[Shutterbug]

B Miracle, I like the little windshield over your headlight. Does it deflect any wind, or does it just sit there and look good?
By the way, it was only 78 today inTampa.

I ran into a motor officer out here that has a heated vest and pant outfit. It is thin like a pair of long jons and plugs right into the lighter attachment. The whole thing including the thrermostat control was $185. I mention it because it was a war 32 outside and he had sweat coming off of his brow......... May be a good investment for cooler rides........
