    If you RODE it today, what was the temp?

    This is more of a winter thing but interesting none the less...

    The Ohio Valley... 39* rode into work the long way, light jacket, visor up on my modular.

    (I did have my baggershield UP tho)

    Riding to the dealership yesterday to get the last of my $1,000 worth of toys, it was 46. Last Saturday when I headed down the I-25 to Denver, I think it was 43. As I've said elsewhere, I'm really a minimal shield guy -- was sad that the stock shield didn't do it for me. But now I'm thinking I might have to get a "winter" shield if I'm going to continue riding instead of putting the bike away as I normally do.

    Does sitting on it in the warm garage count?

    +1C (34F) with a northwest wind blowing at 40 kph (25 mph), so I didn't quite feel like going for a ride at 8 am.

    Right now it's a balmy 6C (42F) with the wind now blowing at 50 kph (30 mph). Still unmotivated to ride, even if I do own an F6B.
