Default Brrrrrr

Was a chilly one riding in this morning, mad a big deal looking for my baclava to keep my neck protected and should have pulled out the gerbings instead.

The one nice thing though was I went back to my shark helmet so the baclava didnt further bed in the pads on my shoei, its a lot better in terms of keeping the wind out and not fogging up. So I think Iwill at least use it as my cold weather helmet and go back to the shoei when its a lil warmer.

I'm just over 1000 miles on mine now, and plan to ride more this week if weather cooperates.
It's a little chilly here, but I'll tough it out

I am still using the futura for commuting, I have to ride through a few gravel traps and a lot of dust/concrete at this site so the buell will stay home. I may take it saturday since I am at the other site and it gets parked in a separate area off site.
