it was gorgeous out this afternoon. A touch windy here and there but overall not too shabby, got in a couple hours thrown in with some grocery shopping.
Will be out again tomorrow.
As for clothing, baselayer under my Resurgence jeans (they're quite nicely lined) and a performance top under my Olympia Dakar jacket with some lined gloves.
Almost too warm for todays rays.

I was out too. I only did 100kms. No complaints though

Was out riding again in the Hamilton area, and all next week we are in the high teens for the temperatures so I am keeping her going deep into November

Up at the Forks and it feels colder than the 11 the weather place is reporting tho the sun feels great.

 

[mikbusa]

I was out for a couple hundred klunks, damn right it feels colder that the thermometers say.

 

[MacDoc]

Yes - was going to go on a longer loop than the Forks but that is a heavy wind and does feel colder. Decided to call it early and head home with the breeze and sun behind me ...THEN it's nice

Great ride today up to Haliburton. Not much traffic. Only two tanks of fuel today.

 

[iblastoff]

damn i didnt realize how cold your hands get with plain riding leather gloves on, riding in 1 degree weather haha.

225k today, a few friends and I went up around Fenelon Falls and back.

Based on the forecast, I'm not adding stabilizer yet. I started filling up with no ethanol premium in preparation for "the end"....3 tanks ago.

On that note, FWIW, I've confirmed my bike gets TERRIBLE fuel milage on premium fuel. Over ~15000K this summer I almost routinely got 260K (+/- 10K) before I'd have to switch to reserve. Last 3 tanks of premium, 205K, 195K, and the last one 185.

Enjoy it ....not likely to last past Friday .....

will be a normal winter with the weak La Nina in the Pacific.

Forgot to mention yesterday, hopped on the 407 for the free section in Oshawa to expedite home yesterday. It's covered stem to stern in dried brine.

I didnt care, rode through it. It appears my bike did not rust to pieces in my garage overnight, I checked this morning.

super moon is bollocks....a 14% increase in size on an object that far away is barely recognizable by the human eye. More crap perpetuated by media outlets desperate for advertising revenue and clicks.
