It was a leather riding jacket kinda day in the south. If the mesh job stayed in the closet until next summer it would be fine with me.


Thom I might be wrong, I sometimes am.

I took the bike out for a quick hundred miles and actually had to switch to a warmer pair of gloves. Perfect crisp and sunny day.

My A/C has been off since Friday evening. 64F outside right now. Looks like a leather day!

And Thom, I'd be real happy too, if I didn't have to wear either my textile or perforated leather jackets for the next 6 months!

I love this time of year. Cool weather and no rain in the forecast for the whole week. Hot Dog! Life is good. Looking forward to putting 5-6 hundred miles on the bike this week.

Oh yeah, did I mention the leaves will be turning colors in a few weeks? Perhaps a cruise up the pig trail should be planned.

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Raining here and 57. Saw a cop on a motorcycle pull a guy over for speeding. Wonder what he did to pish off his superior.

Amazing what blue skys and saddle time will do for a man's soul.

Hey, Thom! Slap on that leather and meet me Saturday and we'll cruise over to Barber for Vintage Days.
