Did anybody else get in their New Years ride?
75 degrees when I left the house,
77 when I got home.
Going to go out again tomorrow I think.

Yep 150 miles of wonderful British motorways 4 Degrees C when I left and 8 when I got home, raining most of the way! Heated seats and grips on the whole journey!

Refused a lunch time drinks invitation  hoping the weather would improve this afternoon.  It didn't!    Bike stayed dry- so did I! :(

Yep, 120 miles on a wet motorway at 7 degrees C. The heated seat gave the effect of sitting on a warm wet flannel.

I don't mind the cold as much as all that gravel they have dumped on the roads.  Especially makes the turns and intersections exciting...and not in a good way.
