Getting cold!
Took the beast out today for battery charging. The Beast is naked, no windscreen. I froze my face! I think I had better wear a full face helmet or put the bike to sleep for winter. Got a headache from that.

Here in the great northeast Pa, where you can get all 4 seasons in a day, its been holding on to summer. I took the 850 down to Hershey for the weekend with rain in the forecast both days. Over 250 miles logged and never got a drop!!! The way down was cool and comfortable, maybe 65. The return trip was ungodly hot for my new leather and gloves , sunny and 81! I always use a full face helmet. Spent Sunday afternoon with my old ladies #1 son at Dukes, a great little bar and grill watching the Steelers win and the Ravens not! Eating everything in the place! Lol good day. He felt a little less joy being a Raven fan.

All the mountain festivals in WNC and in the SE mtns are in full swing..leaf peepers will be clogging the roads...glad we had our rally before the leaf peepers took over...

Skids, we had some snow here in Palmer Lake today. How about you up on the divide?

 You can use that warm weather to ride as you probably need it.
