I would be except I took the week off so I got in 250 miles or so on Wednesday and Thursday.

Thus sitting today out doesn't bother me so much.

I finally picked up my Versys yesterday, so I rode in the rain. And the wind. Both days. All that really suffered were my hands--my gloves are not windproof, apparently. :roll: Roughly 150 wet, windy, glorious miles. :D :D

It hasn't started raining (yet) in my neck of the woods. I am about to go out for a bit before the rain comes though.

I rode to work yesterday, so I got my fix. Tomorrow should be rideable - mid 40's, good at least for a short ride.

yay - that's great. I'm not looking forward to my first rain ride with the B-King, but I think I'll have a few hundred more miles on it before I have to ride in the rain.

I did the same thing, but I didn't get to ride today. I'll install my sliders on the bike tonight, though.

I may be able to ride to work next Wed and Thursday.

Anyone else in the Northeast think it's a nice brisk night for a ride?
