Just wait until tomorrow Skiddy (Wednesday). Forecast looked clear so we could be in for a mega-frost worthy of leaving the heated handgrips on high all the way into work for me.

For all of you who stayed off the bike today I have only two words: You Softies :Punk:

I rode to work this morning, fairly brisk, about 4-5°, parked in the garage, watched the cloud cover roll in and thought to myself, "Wow, thats comin in thick and fast" and then watched the hailstorm unleash.

About a half an hour later I remembered that I left my wet weather gear hanging up in the garage at home...

Thankfully by the time I left work, it was relatively dry! But quite cool...

To be honest, had I seen the weather forecast I probably would have taken the cage (yeah yeah!) but it didn't turn out to be all that bad!!
