Who Got Out And Rode 1-01-10?
01/01/10 at 23:00:49
Its was 46* at 4:00pm here today so I fired up the Savage and rode for an hour. Wasn't too cold and I am glad I started the New Year out right.
I purchased a cold weather First Gear/Hein Gericke coat last fall and it worked great today. The only thing that was slighty cold were my hands. I was using a pair of Thinsulate snowmobile gloves and it was not too bad. I guess I'll be looking into heated gloves or grip heaters soon.

I also rode on the first. Not far, but a short one. It was about 49 degrees here in south Georgia.

On the 1st 22 and snowing all day- done for the year -salty roads and ice! ...But I have to pull the battery if I don't want to buy a new one!
Years ago while working the midnight shift in Jan. heard a guy go down when he hit a patch of sand on a curve out front - went out covered him with a blanket and called the ambulance. 5 above 0. He had a helmet and a snowsled suit. Never head what happened to him. In 5 minutes the first EMT arrived. It's hard to lose these memories. Or the two bikes parked and one down on the side of 495 S in Mass and a girl crying and cradling a guys head in her lap while the traffic went by at 70-80.
A lucky friend went down doing 45 from a flat but was at work couple days later.
