Default Season is winding down

Early October and it's getting me down. Rainy and cold at night, don't know where the summer went. With the Wing having moved on down the road, I'll be getting the STeed ready for hibernation. Not a big fan of heated clothing.

I'll try to hold out as long as the daytime temps stay around 50+...

I don't blame you man. If I had that, I'd hate to put it away for the Winter too. Back when I did have one, I rode it to work every night, all Winter long one year. That was the only 2nd vehicle we had at the time. Fortunately, it was one of those rare Winters when we only got a few snow flurries, but it sure was cold - no heated clothes, just insulated coveralls, parka and gloves.

I hear ya 2Late. We have had a unusually wet summer and I didn't get to ride as much as I wanted. We have a ride planned for this Saturday weather permitting. I generally ride till it get really cold out.

Ride safe.
