Up at 3:58AM, ready to ride!
« on: February 24, 2021, 10:13:46 AM »
What, are you nuts!?
Killed time with a shower...mustache trim,  shared a banana with the pup, read current book, etc....
Trying something new - preheating my thermal mug with hot water.
Can't go out to the scoot till 5:30AM.
It's been too many weeks since weather has permitted me to ride.....
Has the village removed my table and chairs?
Will I remember how to ride?

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

you guys kill me!...yes, finally our weather broke in the Midwest of the USA...high yesterday around here was around 50 F  (10 C). We endured a few weeks of at or below zero weather (-17 c). Our 1 to 2 foot snowpack is starting to melt..finally.

And with Stig back out on his scoot at dark thirty...all is well with the world, again.

Got to say it's been great being back out on the scooter here this last week.  You don't know how much you've missed it until you're back out there again.  Temperatures in double-digit territory (15c today) and some journeys I haven't even used my new heated grips!

That said we are still in lock-down for now so has to be "essential" trips only for the moment, but I will admit to going the long way round to the supermarket...  So looking forward to that first full day out exploring the countryside.  Roll on.
Regards & ride safe,
