Two nice days back to back. Road the LH on the first, then the SF on the second. Temp dropped and we are in for a week of cold hard rain. Winterized them both day and put them away for the year. This was a great year up here to ride. I started in mid march and roade all the way through to yesterday. Made the inflated insurance cost's seem reasonable.

Storm comming
I'm always sad to put them away for the year, they run really good when it's colder but the tires are slow to heat up and I don't want to go down in a sandy corner or skid when I need to stop. I started the tear down of the E today and will start getting the property ready for the big storm comming up the eastern seaboard.
As for my southern brothers and sisters who can ride most if not all year, stay alert and stay safe. Good riding !!!!!

Upper 30's F yesterday and drizzle rain. Bad night for trick or treating. Poor kids who braved the weather were freezing. We were handing out candy by the handfuls and still had too much left over.
