    Cool on the paper terrorists. . . or should I say warm with the heated gear! I didn't start noticing the cold weather so much until the last few years.

    In the 40's here today but I just got out of the hospital so I'll probably wait until tomorrow to take a ride. Supposed to get into the high 50's maybe even 60. That'll feel GREAT!

    I lied it was 30 degrees when we left and I end up wearing my heated gear, just had it on low though. :)
    My buddy didn't wear his and I know his hands got cold.
    My theory is if you have it use it, makes the ride much better.

    Cowboy, does it EVER get down to 50 there? If it were 50 here, I could ride with a short-sleeve shirt.
