Did You Ride Today? Where To and How Far?
Took the wife for our weekly breakfast ride. We had to go to Ocala to get some software for my computer and then take it to my friend to install. Total ride was a little over 100 miles. Great weather, started out around 45 and ended around 60.

Thanks Jim for the birthday wish. Had a good birthday although I ended up and didn't ride. Did manage to get in three short rides today. Felt really good to be on the bike again. Couldn't believe I hadn't ridden since November 1.

Rode the Foothills Parkway and some back roads I know.
Had to check out my new heated jacket liner. Sweeeet. |

Took a break from work mid-afternoon and went out for about 20 minutes. Stopped at the gas station coming back to replace the tank of 'winter' gas I burned off.
Thinking it was the end of season last week I and had already poured the sea foam into a fresh tank for storage. Ended up getting in another couple hundred miles - forecast is for low 60's again tomorrow. Storage season is already getting short!

Too bad about the snow Jim. I don't do any riding with snow on the roads. Of course we hardly ever have any here.
I did manage a short ride today and then came home to do some more painting on the house.

Managed to get in two short rides today. Went earlier in the day and picked a newspaper. Second trip was to the post office, the bank and then to Wal-Mart. Beautiful weather for a ride today.

I rode to work this morning, it was 41 degrees in downtown Chandler, which means it was probably 37-39 degrees out where I live. I wasn't ready for that. Seems like just a couple of weeks ago it was 90 at 06:15 when I leave for work.

It was cool with a high of around 50 and rained on and off all day. I only looked at the Nomad when I went out to feed the cat. 80% chance of rain tomorrow but come Wednesday it will be sunny and maybe I can get a ride in.

I almost rode today, but decided it wasn't worth the hassle. Instead of going directly to my office today, I had to go spend the morning at our corporate headquarters, about 35 miles from my house. I couldn't wear jeans there, so I had to wear slacks, and it was 42 degrees when I left the house. That means I would have had to wear my insulated ski pants, carry an extra pair of dress shoes, etc. I just didn't want to deal with it.
