I road to and from work today. The high here was 35 and mostly sunny, but windy. I really enjoyed the ride. I had been off of the scoot for about a week as we had to shuttle all three cages back and foirth to the shop. It looks like rideable weather for the next week. New Mexico is great. Job

Ohhh I hate the snow, tell you something funny, When i get in my car, I feel so closed in and restricted. Can't wait for winter to be over.. I'm going stir crazy.... Been looking online this morning at a new bike for long range driving, thinking of this one. 2014 Indian Chief Vintage..  Glad you got your bike started, It may take some find tuning to get it all dialed in, but I'm sure you will love it when you do.. |

Yep, rode today. Even made a video. Enjoy! Matt I dunno....I'm just not impressed with riders standing up and riding with one hand. But that's just me. |

I believe that is just an illusion from a elongated early morning shadow. It was another nice breezy riding day today which I took advantage of picking up supplies at Home Depot.

I won't be riding for a long time. Nothing but snowy, icy, salty, and sandy roads here for the next four months. Best I can do is play Grand Theft Auto and ride around on the faggio (that's a scooter in the game).

Looks like the rain storms tomorrow may stay a bit north of us here in Tampa Bay so it may turn out to be another fine riding day. I threw my riding jacket and helmet liner in the wash because it has be unseasonably warm and I needed to freshen things up a bit. Might even take some time from riding to start the Barbeque. Downside to all this is the lawn needs mowing and there is some pruning to be cleared up.

Standing on a P while rolling down the street at 60mph is just an overall bad idea. The GoPro is mounted on top of my helmet, so it has the illusion of being very high, but it's really not. Sometimes I am one handed, but that's because I use hand signals when I turn in addition to my turn signals. Also, Like Rocky stated, it's just an elongated morning shadow that makes me look like I'm standing. Matt |

On my Sport City I am about at eye level with most SUV drivers so standing would be up there. Won't require an oxygen mask but....
A nice brisk morning dipping to the mid 40's in some locations so I am glad I put the liner in my Summer jacket before heading out before sunrise. Should be a bit cooler tomorrow but still another fine riding day. Will have to remember to use my non-perforated gloves tomorrow morning. I felt like I picked the wrong day to take off the No-Shave November Beard once I got past 45 mph this morning.

It's been cold and raining for nearly a week here... Unusually cold for this time of year in NE Texas, with temps down in the 20s and some actual snow flurries one night. Finally warming up today and by the end of the week, we are supposed to see temps back close to 70 degrees.
I haven't ridden in over a week so I got the scoot cranked up and ready to go last night after the tire change. Then, I got up this morning and it was about 28 degrees with a hard frost on the gound so I chickened out. I ended up riding the pickup to work today. I plan on riding the scoot tomorrow though...
