Happy Thanksgiving!

Above 40°F, rainy with a nice little wind....it's a go! (because - very soon 14 days of 25°F dawns!)
Strangely  - didn't see any other riders on the streets?....



W a i t  for it.....



Bingo - coffee is ready!



Hope you have a good one folks.

Glad to say we’ve had it dry, if chilly, at 7c (45 in real money) on yesterday’s ride. I really must get some heated grips!

(It’s currently 37, but that’s OK, I’m under the duvet!)

My brother had one of them Peugeot Duvet 50's.
If he could get it started....it was a lot of fun.
Like all Frenchie's, it was as soft riding as a couch on a pond.

I was supposed to go on a Romeo ride Wednesday but got up to 32F (0C) temperatures  and quickly nixed that idea.   The warm South looks mighty good this time of year.  You would think with my extra weight I would have pleanty of insulation.
In parts 200S and Grand Vista and my motorcycles 2 CS BMW'S and one GS BMW.

Sold-32 Kymco scooters of various sizes this summer.

Is it as comfortable as riding a chesterfield?  I was going to trade my 63 Davenport in on one.
