That's a good screen name. Keep riding in that weather and you will need one. ;)

After today, I guess I will be retiring for the season. Its not fun all alone on the road with leaf peepers, snow in the gaps and 42*.

sly · 10-23-2010, 04:27 PM

Well I hope this wasn't the last ride, but maybe.... 46F but the sun was shining and the warm riding gear was on. Quite nice actually, and I saw a few others on the road (and coffee shops) Hopefully an Indian summer will be around and we'll be able to ride a few more times.. Goota say bug free rideing is great!! See ya all soon!!

Still Ridin. Today it made it to the low 50's. Sun good....shade not so good. Will ride all year if it hits the mid 40's. Don't like it colder than that though. Whenit gets down around freezin not so much fun.

Goin out tomorrow low 50's expected.

Went out today, trying the Gopro camera to see if I like and weather was great

Planing on going as long as the white stuff doesn't stay on the ground

I suspect each one of us will need one eventually.

The Canada guys and Northern tier riders have my full sympathy...brrrr!

Yep, 81, sunny, not a cloud in the sky :)

Tombstone, you don't actually ride with roads looking like that? Man if they have anything that looks like snow or ice I am at home.

moloprintz · 10-23-2010, 10:07 PM

Weather and foliage on the Cherohala Skyway was great today.

Yep...but a lot slower! :) My cage sits about 360 days a year. Last year I walked outside to scuff my foot on the road. It was a little icy and I thought, 'well I guess I'm driving the durango today'. Then I looked over at the durango, it had been sitting so long it was covered in snow, and had thick ice on the windshield, and I thought...'nope, looks like I'm riding today'.

Tombstone... what vehicle are you riding in those pictures? Certainly not a Nomad. Can't tell from the mirrors and windshield.

Just wondering... :)

Loafer · 10-24-2010, 09:03 AM

Looks like a Suzuki V-Strom 1000. Do I win the prize?

Loafer wins the prize! It's an 08 Strom 1K

I didn't get the Nomad until last May. I still have both and rode the Strom on a nice but tiring ride yesterday.
