It was 50deg and raining here.

That's pretty much Texas winter. Once the road dries, we can go back to regularly scheduled riding...

The VFR is in pieces right now.

Cold in the morn, but hits 70's in the afternoon. I don't hate riding in the cold. I hate having to cloth up for it.

This is what I left in this morning, pretty damn cold on the way north. But when I left CT it was close to 50, then dropped back down to the 40s as night came in and I got to NJ and MD. Then 15 miles from home it started pouring in the upper 30's.

I think I'm the one person where that doesn't work. I tried once and my hands actually hurt by the time I got where I was going.

I have a small, thin pair of leather gloves that work wonders, but really, any extra layer that doesnt easily pass air will do.
