Rain suit makes for a good Wind Breaker to help keep you warmer when faced with colder temps!

100% out. Havent missed the ride for the last 4 years but i close on my house Thursday and will be moving. Everybody be safe and have fun.

Completely understandable.  And well worth skipping the ride for.  The new house looks NICE - congrats, brotorcycle!

Verified with the church this morning and they are okay with us to be there.  They have an event in the morning and they just asked that we try and keep the noise levels down in the parking lot in respect of the seminar.  So no rev bombing, etc.  

 

We will have a collection plate/box for anyone that wants to donate a little bit of money to the church for letting us use their property as a meeting place.  This would be a nice gesture to the church for them being so flexible in allowing us to use their location as a meet spot.  

Maybe we can even let the hate parade hand over the donation.  That would be irony at it's finest.

Yeah hopefully it keeps shifting. Me and Chris (Shoop) will be meeting at 339 Park N Ride Saturday morning if anyone in SEO wants to ride up.

I ended up buying a chest harness (saw your vid a while back) looking forward to seeing the footage that I capture using it.

Gotta go with the chin mount! it's the best view!

I have one on the side of my helmet. I like the sense of movement of and on the bike with the chest mount. If anything it'll just be another view. I still dont know what I am doing with footage. I normally have it set to take pictures every so often since I really dont have a way to edit video (I dont really care to edit video footage) minus little clips I can use for social media and such.

I usually just let mine run the entire time and have ridiculously long videos. I'm sure its boring to some, but in the dead of winter I like to sit and watch them again. I will probably record the entire ride.

I don't like the thumbscrew facing inward on his chest.  Something happens where you go down, that thumb screw is gonna hurt.  I have a ton of allen keyed bolts that don't extrude much more than the head of the bolt.  Much nicer, but not as convenient if you want to adjust, so I leave one thumbscrew in for the main adjustment and the rest I set before and don't ever really touch.

I just noticed that, I don't run the extension on mine, but I could see that hurting in the event of a fall.

Am I correct in assuming Sunday is the rain date? 

 

Saturday is looking fantastic as far as weather goes. If you're into that whole precipitation thingy. Honestly if it doessn't improve by Friday I will have to opt out. I'm not feeling a 3 hour ride to put around in some rain. 

 

Of all of the weekends to get shitty weather... lol

Its only Tuesday. I never get all bent outta shape or even listen to those weather reports several DAYS ahead of time!  I will decide when its Friday and the weather report gets updated.

Fingers crossed until then . . .
