I think a trip out may be in order on Tuesday? Best forecast for some weeks!

Looking good for you!
My habit of riding out only in the dark -  at before sunrise - means of course that I pay very close attention to those overnight temperatures.
It may very well be comfortable at 2PM - but what's it to be at 5:30AM??
So, the heated gloves!

soon here, too - I hope!

Yesterday it was sunny and nearly 60 degrees so i got out and went riding with some friends.



It was a beautiful day but we weren't expecting this:

3 out of the seven riders in our group dropped their bikes but all at very low speeds so no one was hurt.  Everything considered it was a great day!

Well none of the promised sunshine, but dry and a reasonable 12c (54f) so a run out was a definite must.  Only managed a couple of hours, but it was necessary for the head straightening!  Spring is just around the corner guys, hang in there.

Did some service today. Added motor oil 650 ml, which means there was left 200 ml, changed last time autumn 2019 and 6500 km ago. Not so metallic noisy now when running  ;D Amazed it didnt cut. Front tire pressure from one to two made 5 kmh more speed, now does limited 45 kmh again. Now alles in ordnung, tomorrow ride to buy gear oil and do the change. Spring is about to come if I smell correctly.
