tufftom4 Posted December 30, 2012 #1 Posted December 30, 2012 Capt-D "Derrick" and myself took a nice cold ride around lake O this morning and put on about 190 miles I hope to do it more often but it has to warm up.

Well, I was hopeful when I first read this, that your ride around lake O...was around lake Ontario. That would have been...cool ! Riding around lake O in Florida is nice too. Great pictures. Nice to see people out riding.
CaptainJoe Posted December 30, 2012 #3 Posted December 30, 2012 Well... at least ya didn't have to worry about the blackflies aka lovebugs.......
Capt-D Posted December 30, 2012 #4 Posted December 30, 2012 !You can definitely tell where people are from when you ride in cold weather. Tom, who is from Conn, had a leather jacket and t-shirt, blue-jeans, tennis-shoes, open faced helmet, and some crappy gloves that he must of got from the good-will store, and never complained about the cold. (45 degrees) Me, on the other hand, I had thermals, top and bottom, 2 heavy long sleeved t-shirts, leather jacket with liner, scarf, 3/4 helmet with face shield, heavy riding boots, and insulated gloves; guess who grew up in Florida! those electric jackets are looking better all the time, and how about heated grips and seats anyway, was a great ride, wish y'all could of been there.
Rick Haywood Posted December 31, 2012 #5 Posted December 31, 2012 OK You guys need to order warmer weather. The wife and I are leaving on the 16 of next month towing the bike to our daughters in Pensacola then riding down to key west and points in between. Need warm weather please.
Phoneman1981 Posted December 31, 2012 #6 Posted December 31, 2012 We visited friends in Pensacola in January of 2010. I was never so COLD!!!! Hope you have better weather than we did.
Capt-D Posted December 31, 2012 #7 Posted December 31, 2012 Born and raised in Pensacola, great city.:thumbsup2:
N3FOL Posted December 31, 2012 #8 Posted December 31, 2012 Glad to hear you guys had a nice ride. Over here, we had snow a few days ago and salt all over the roads. I am patiently waiting for rain to wash away the salt. I'ce always enjoyed cold weather riding.
