I got quite a range in today. I left the Vermont rally, and it was probably in the upper 50s, low 60s. Rode west into New York, and south, and the temp dropped noticably. Took advantage of the low temps to test out the new electrics. They work well. Too well for today, in fact. Didn't leave 'em plugged in long. Finally hit I-90, and headed easy into Mass. Almost as soon as I crossed the state line, the temperature shot up. I was off at the first rest area and shucked all my layers. Upper 70s, I'd guess, all the way home.

Me, too! When I was near Killington, VT it got real chilly then cold rain outside of Rutland. I was lucky to be stopped, eating when the heavy rain came. I still had not warmed up much when crossing Mass. Got pulled over in Cummington and the officer was wearing a short sleeve polo shirt. He looked comfortable but commented on all the gear I was wearing - 'stich, gloves & boots. In Winsted, CT I started seeing blue skies and when I got to Waterbury I was feeling warm. Less than a half hour from home so I rode on. What a great day to ride!

Gee I wish this heat would break....
Geeze, I wish this summer heat would end so I can start riding again. Hidy ho maties!
I've been AWOL, but I'll try to come back now that "my" season is approaching in a couple of months!
Hope all is well with all of the Rounders. I be good, just ready to see all this nice weather end and let the snow and cold come in so I can get back on the road. I have been distracted with big cage things but I hope to drop by here more often.
Rich was kind enough to send me a note and ask if I had dropped off the face of the earth,
and basically I had...at least from a two wheeled point of view.
But I be back now.
Thanks to Rich for the wake up call!

Where'd the last 13 years go?
I went looking for the Rounders Group today and they have disappeared. Anybody still with Rounders? I ain't dead yet and am still riding.

Can't believe this was 13 years ago. 
I disappeared for a few years, obviously back again, but I see others have moved on as well...
