rare chance to ride in the rain....
« on: September 19, 2022, 01:58:31 PM »
I heard my wife ask from under the covers, "is that thunder?"
"No, dear - think it's the neighbors."
I got on the road just before she got up for her shower!
Rode in and out of some good rain for coffee this morning.
Exasperated with the combination of black, unfinished roads, rain, and fly-screen glare - I stopped and stuffed a spare leather glove above the headlight. That knocked off 90% of the glare! (I'll cut some foam to stuff in there for night riding)(of course i lost the glove and had to back to fetch it)


Heading out....




Where I used to sit with my coffee....


Rain holding off for now....


Heading home...



stuffed fly-screen!

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

Or get a black fly screen - Ermax?
Regards & ride safe,
