Title: Fog is also W E T ~!
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on October 05, 2021, 12:13:56 PM
Pretty foggy this morning - but warm.
Been awhile since I rode in fog - and fog can get thicker out in the sticks!
I was soaked through my mesh jacket by the time I arrived for coffee.
(I accidentally took 1st photo with a flash - that's how much water was in the air!)

Really appreciate the well-focused headlight on the Liberty!
The LIKE 200i is focused, too - just not as bright. (although - the high beam has a feature to allow search planes to find you)

+1  And I do so hate how fog gets over both sides of the visor!

Stig, I have to hand it to you...you are a hard core rider! Early morning? Dark? Cold? So foggy you can barely see the road? Time to ride!

Meanwhile, the rest of us are in our jammies, warm, safe and sound in our beds ..for another few hours.

Not as goofy as it sounds....
Once through town I've the roads and the world mostly to myself. Even the squirrels are still in bed, but the raccoons and deer are around. So, I slow down and ride accordingly. I'm in no hurry.....and in the very thickest bit of fog out in the county - I stayed aboard. No good place to be standing take snaps.
