It's a lovely bright sunny day here today, but f-f-f-freezing. (or maybe a degree above it). The roads were clear and dry though so I had a quick blast up to town and back.

One thing though, it was a sod to push out of the shed - almost like I'd left the handbrake on. So whys that then? Drivebelt stiffening up with the cold? Transmission fluid thickened? Brakes maybe stuck on a bit with the cold?

It was fine when I got back however.
      25  C. below    and my scooter moved easy,  I have full syn. grease on my axels,

If it's hard to push, my vote would be the reduction gear oil. That stuff gets thicker than molasses in January. It's 52 here today, in the dear ole south and will be 67 on CHRISTmas day. Gotta ride.

Ah well, the weather went downhill last and it's going to be a bit stormy for the next few days. Which is fine, given I've nothing important to do and nowhere that I desperately need to go to.

So this morning I read about Tennessee. Seems like an alright kind of place. Probably to many guns for my liking though

Next few days are going to be hot and sunny so might jump on the LIKE on Christmas day and spend a couple of early hours at the beach relaxing.

Enjoy, but do watch out for nasty spiders crawling up your anus, deadly snakes in your Christmas tree, killer sharks in the sea.....ooh, and sunburn.
