It's not in the 70's up here in the north, but I'm still hanging in there and still riding. I took the spyder to work earlier this week on a cold morning. It was 27 degrees. With the heated gear and heated grips on high, I managed to stay comfortable. I usually ride until it snows. I've even rode in snowy conditions, but at that point it gets a little unsafe to be on the spyder and is time to park it for the winter.

It's nothing new for all you folks south of here to ride a lot in Nov. It is virtually unknown for me to ride then.
I have had about 10 rides this November, with a nice 120 mile one today & another longish one planned for tomorrow.
It has been 40 - 48°F on these rides & 2 things have kept me warm:
Heated liner & gloves
Those wing things that attach below & to the side of the large touring screen.
Here's hoping for a few more rides this year, but I'm not holding my breath.

Yesterday was 60, and we rode for four hours. Today it is snowing. Gotta love November in Michigan!

I was kinda busy around the house, did some yard mowing, tree trimming, stuff like that. I did, however, take time to ride BR1 over to my local Harley Davidson dealer for free breakfast tacos and coffee. This Harley crowd seem to be a little different...young to middle age. They all look the Spyder over and many ask the usual questions and say "we will be there one of these days". This is to response to my answer to their question "Why did you buy it?" I say so I can ride until I am 90 or so.....They all agree and no "hoots" or the tri-cycle crap.
Their attitudes changed when HD came out with the Tri-Glide and several were there...so the three wheel jokes and pokes are gone...ha ha
The tacos were tasty....they did get a little testy when I packed six tacos and three sodas in my trunk...ha ha (just kidding)

It is a nice 78 degrees here and no wind. GOD BLESS TEXAS!
Although, I put over 50 miles to get that ice cream.. Figured I should take advantage for when I am complaining of how cold it is in a few weeks. Lol
Hummmm.. 50 miles for a Ice cream .. However how about 2,250 miles for a hamburger.

We do ride, locally about 60 miles for a Tom's Burger in Dade City, Fl at least once a month.

Don't have the time to ride that far for a burger. Wish I did! But, work,kids,and life gets in the way
