Too hot to handle

**Captain Fin** · 04-15-2013, 06:13 AM

It's been a great winter but now it's time to pickle the Spyder and put her away for the summer. These 95 degree days are just too hot on the streets of Miami and I have fear that the flip flop on my right foot may melt or catch fire. It's now time for the Spyder Lovers up North to come out and play. See you next year. Enjoy your summer of spinning and grinning.
Bye y'all!

SpyderPops heat shield installation is the answer. 95 degree weather is normal for Flarda. Cindy is now making me wear sun screen though. Can you say Bullfrog?

Um.. I love the heat shield and all, but it aint going to help the rider any when the air OUTSIDE the bike is 115 degrees. Maybe someone can make a canopy like Dave made for Teddy that covers the rider.

I really wish I was in your shoes. Just went through another spring snow storm with more on the way. Eventually it will happen but WHENNNNNNNNNN

the only problem with sunscreen is it makes your arms turn black from picking up all the road grime. That is also why it is better to always stay in front of the traffic.

I will still ryde at night or early morning, but we have swarms of Mosquitos here on the stretch towards Miami. The stretch is U.S. 1 North and runs thru the Everglades.
I have a trip planned for the first of June to Mexico and Guatemala where I will stay in the mountains and cooler temperatures.

Yeah, the summers are awfully short up there, aren't they? I heard last year's was on a Tuesday?

Hey, come to think of it, that pretty well describes my winters down here!

"Bullfrog"

**Captain Fin** · 04-16-2013, 08:12 AM

Does bull frog melt the rubber on your sunglasses? I've had a problem with some sun screens that will melt the rubber on motorcycle sunglasses.

**MouthPiece** · 04-16-2013, 08:23 AM

It's never happened with me. That's not to say it wouldn't.

Thanks, I will give it a try. I just bought new Wiley glasses and would not like to lose them to sunscreen.

A very interesting "turn around" from the norm. So far, I have rode my

in temps all the way up to 75 degrees.
