It was 51 here today and I rode all afternoon. The temperature was great...my problem was the road apples here in Amish Country. On a Sunday afternoon they get a bit thick what with every family driving the buggy to and from church services, and you learn to stay in the left hand side of your lane 90% of the time. I only saw three bikes out there today, which surprised me. I figured there would be a lot taking advantage of the warmer day.

Rode into town yesterday to take care of a few errands, went home had lunch and then rode in our annual Toys for Tots run. The temps were in low 80's. I forgot my sunscreen and got a little sunburn on my face, darn it.

Endured riding all summer, now is the best time to ride. Been around 80 high 50 low.

Still riding here in Woburn Mass. Been a little cool but as long as it's not snowing, will keep riding.

Getting ready to ride in to work this morning, a nice 43f. Rode in last Monday too, was a cool 29f.

Of course if it wasn't for my car being out of commission right now, hit a deer, I probably wouldn't have rode last Monday.

I ride for the pure pleasure of it. I recently joined the Patriot Guard Riders and have ridden in several escorts. This group is 100%

Upstate New York is too cold...28 degrees this morning. Bike is put up for the winter.

What a difference a day makes eh? If it’s 28 in North Texas we don’t put the bike up for winter because we know it could be 82 tomorrow.
