I got out last on X-Mas, then the snow hit...

Oh well, we were on borrowed time.  Time to start delayed winter maintenance and projects (like a third bend of handlebars, Renthal Street Nakeds; went back to OEM after running Outlaw Racing TH-08 Low until my sciatica went crazy)...

36c out, but a good day for a ride.

@jdavis - Agreed, I'm looking for shade when and wherever I stop these days!  All good when you're on the move of course! 😊

Boo hoo, poor boys, 98 degrees, tough to take.

I'd kill for weather like that.  And I bet it's with low humidity (on the other hand not good for fires I presume, a HUGE negative).

Here when it's that hot we'll have 98% humidity but today the high will a balmy 29°F (that's -3.3 to you F challenged).

 

 

Cheers!

Not the greatest pic, but the bike with a mural of the other King in Mississippi today. His museum is just down the street from here. Last summer at t the museum, I saw 2 bikes with Mexican plates.

@2and3cylinders - Ha!  Yes, I guess one man's meat (heat?!) is another man's poison.😏  And you're right, at least we can get out all year round.

I do admit that I feel for forum members in here who have to winterise their bikes for part of the year because it's simply waaaay too cold!

FWIW - not really complaining, just don't 'tolerate' the heat like I did when I was just a whippersnapper.!

P.S. We actually used the fahrenheit system up to sometime in the 70's when we changed over to the metric system here in Oz.   And isn't 29F closer to -1.7C ? 😉

That picture was from Marathon Key.  I live in northern Indiana, where cycle riding in January is a meteorological fluke.  So my brother and I , both in our 60’s, decided to do something like retired people.  We loaded the bikes on a trailer and drove to Homestead. From there we took day rides to Key West and Everglades.  Nice to get the bike out of the garage.
