Two nice days here in North West CT. Rode Saturday however when I left home for a 100 mile ride 11am temp 50, back at 3
;pm 37 degrees almost froze my legs and fingers. Monday and Tuesday short rides. Back in garage today decided to clean off exhaust pipes. Wow I could not believe all the sand everywhere, there is not too much sand in CT roads that are serviced by State DOT trucks, they came up with calcium chloride liquid. Back to the sand and dirt, I rode 8000 miles last year purchased TBA May 19, last year. It got dirtier in these last three days that all of last year. The three rides priceless. Saturday I will be busy washing all the crud off. I guess necessary tools. Bottle brush, both stiff and soft bristle, lots of Q tips, last year worked wonders cleaning the head grooves. Well just another education to the endeavors of seasonal riding in North West CT.
