fjdog Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Ok, not to rub it in too much for those of you in the cold, Just got back from a 90 mile ride from Santa Barbara CA to Ojai and back. Low temp on the ride was 68 and a high of 82 back in the valley. Warm regards.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporting Member texscottyd Posted January 30, 2019 Supporting Member Share Posted January 30, 2019 @captfire22 - That’s absolutely insane!
