drc32-0 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Kind of early for this subject,but I'll chime in. I got a "there and back" ride in Monday and Tuesday from New Martinsville WV to Zanesville. Monday I took 255,26,676 and 669 back to Zanesville.The good stuff heading back to WV on Tuesday included 564,565,260 and the Sistersville ferry across the river. I never put the bikes up for winter...there is always good enough weather to get one of the bikes out once in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue-yamaR6s Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Yep, great afternoon for riding today!!! Got 50 miles in. Smaller ride in last Sunday when it was in the upper 40's towards evening. That's getting a little too cold to enjoy. Days like today make the ride so much more enjoyable. Early in my ride, I did see 3 small deer ahead of me cross the road so I drove with that on my mind the whole time looking for deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smccrory Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 I saw a deer early in my ride yesterday as well. Made me appreciate following a car most of the way back - normally I'd want to get around 'em but I didn't mind the swath cutting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) My wife hit one with her work car tonight in the city. Somewhere on 23 south of 315 Edited October 31, 2013 by 2talltim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smccrory Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Dang! She ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Yup she was just shaken a bit. Probably totaled the car she said she could not get a driver's door open but the impact was in the front. But that's not saying much she drives around in one of those cube looking Scions that I could probably fit in the back of my Tahoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smccrory Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Glad she's ok. Scion can make another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had thought about getting a vest, but you still need to get the electical items separate. I ended up getting some oxford heated grips that help, but like you said heated gear is a whole other level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will have to run wires down your sleeves of you ever get gloves. With the full liner the glove connection is right at the end of the sleeves. Figure 175 for liner, 150 for gloves and 100 for the dual controller. You need the dual controller, jacket will get to hot before the gloves get warm enough.

Too be honest, if I were to need all of that heated gear to ride and be comfy......I aint gonna be riding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prekarious Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Got a couple hours worth of riding in yesterday. Saw a couple of cruisers out. Wasn't too bad until about 4:30 to maybe 5:00pm when it felt like temp dropped 10 degrees out of nowhere. Thankfully was already on way back in. Still ride whenever possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmanlyst Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Took a nice ride today. Started at 8:00am just got home at 3:00pm. Didn't go anywhere special just rode until I felt like it was time to go home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
