I really don't consider the temperature too much when I decide to ride unless it's really cold.

It's been a heat wave since april here. I'll continue to ride in my 3 digit temps but you pussies pack up when it hits 60f for months. Snow ride or GTFO!

I pack it up when it hits 40 degrees. Too many times getting into the shower hoping to bring feeling into my balls again. Cold gas tanks FTL

20s for me since I got the Gerbings G3's

I rode today and wore my Teknic leather jacket. My shirt was drenched when I got home

I have an Olympia mesh jacket but I feel naked wearing it after getting used to all the armor in the teknic

My local forecast . . . it's only going to be 100 on Friday! I might have to turn on my heated grips.

Our heatwave broke the other day, fortunatley it was only a few days, not the marathon heat you guys have been dealing with, It was 68 degrees riding in today, I thought I would need my gerbings LOL

I try to avoid riding in the high heat days but a day like today is ok since I am working a double. Leaving home at 6am and going home at 11pm it will be cool out.
