Holy smokes! What a day that must have been. Do you like the cold weather when you ride?

Had a good ride today. Also got to try to teach my wife on hers for the first time... I was worried about her dropping it. She almost did, but by the end of the lesson she was riding the clutch up and down the street. I think she really enjoyed it

That's cool. Tried to teach my wife a few years ago and she was scared of the bike. Gave up and didn't try to force it.

Why worry, if you ride you will drop it. Let her know dropping while not preffered is gonna happen. It will help make for less stress.

, ymmv.

Had an awesome ride today. Me and five guys from work went down to Encinitas and had lunch (About a 170 mile trip). We cruised the beach

What a day

I can't say I like the cold, but for me it's no reason not to ride. I do prefer it either cold low 40's to 30* or 70 and better. I find it hard to dress for the mid range. From 45* to 69* I am either too hot or too cold, not really comfortable. My really cold weather is pretty good or in the hotter weather I can get down to a t-shirt.

Certainly that has to qualify for "Iron Butt" status.
