I simply do not want to subject my electric gloves to that much rain and those temps! I have two pair....but neither are waterproof....and no way can I ride with wet hands in those temps. Plus, might get caught out miles from home if snow arrives.
I ride in the 20's, and in the rain....but, think I'll stay home tomorrow. There is still 5 or 6" of snow on the road sides.
Bummer!
Might be my longest period off the scooter.

better to stay safe and able to ride another day than risk it in dangerous conditions!

Looks like a really great decision, Stig! Ham radio is a great hobby on days like this!

I have a friend that I haven't seen in ages, was very active on the 2 meter band

is it true that you don't need to do code anymore?
