You and Wayne come from the same strange genes...he will ride in those temps also...or at least he used to.

I hope you had some warm gear on.

Be safe (and warm).

Heated seat and grips mittens , long johns , flannel shirt , leather coat .

Heated seat gets too hot only ran it a few minutes at a time .

The ride in this morning was better about 5 degrees warmer .

I look at the ride home more than the temperature .

Goldwings are nice .

OK.  I rode this morning.  I think it was only about 43-45 though.
