mike042 Posted September 20, 2011 #1 Posted September 20, 2011 i was born and raised in new england still live here , and after 50 plus years still havent learned the fall temps can drop rapidly. last sat was perfect day blue sky, 75f no humidity perfect lets go cruising!!! so i was getting little impatient with gf she puttin stuff in the bags gettin her jackets etc, an dumb ole me just itchin to ride. off we go beautiful rideing. after a few hours we go by a car dealer she wants to stop as she needs new car . OK well we are there for few hours by time we leave its 9 pm dark cold as hell. and about an hour away from home. she has her heavy leather coat, chaps gloves (you know the rest). im in light leather jacket no gloves shorty helmet no face mask etc. when we made it home all I heard was all the i told you so's as she broke my hands free from the grips, and rest of night was when will you learn to bring your stuff !!!
myminpins Posted September 20, 2011 #2 Posted September 20, 2011 Serves you right!!!! LOLOL!!!!! Been there, done that, got the t-shirt!!!! I actually have some extra stuff persistently in my saddle bags - lightweight jacket, rainsuit, lightweight jacket, face mask, heavy gloves, etc. -- the benefits of owning a Venture with lots of room. Mike actually seems to be fine when I'm freezing my BUTT off!!! Once that sun goes down, BOY does it cool off FAST!!!! You have a Venture, maybe you should chuck some extra gear somewhere and keep it with you until next summer? Long underwear folds up really small but sure helps a LOT if you need it!!!!
mike042 Posted September 20, 2011 Author #3 Posted September 20, 2011 I know I know haha i usally have a sweatshirt an rain gear and stuff i my saddle bag. but took everything out a few weeks ago on a good cleaning day, and of course never put my stuff back:doh: . oh well just gives debbie more ammo to tease me haha!!:bang head:
N3FOL Posted September 20, 2011 #4 Posted September 20, 2011 Looks like she knew it was going to be a late night ride with the intent to stop by the car dealership. I think the problem was she never told you about it.
bongobobny Posted September 20, 2011 #5 Posted September 20, 2011 Bet you thought about stopping in a department store or something to buy a nice heavy jacket, eh?!!?
Snaggletooth Posted September 20, 2011 #6 Posted September 20, 2011 Yep, been there. Here in Nebraska it can be 40 in the morning and 80 in the afternoon. My bags look like my closet. The trick is to keep a swim suit wrapped up in my thermal liner so I don't miss any chances to enjoy the weather. Mike
Ryana7769 Posted September 21, 2011 #7 Posted September 21, 2011 You should have fired back with "Well I got you to warm me up Honey! Come here and let me put my cold hands on you."
Yammer Dan Posted September 21, 2011 #8 Posted September 21, 2011 You should have fired back with "Well I got you to warm me up Honey! Come here and let me put my cold hands on you." And thats when the fight started!!
