Took off on ride #1. 36 degrees Fahrenheit, foggy, became a Popsicle. Loved every moment. Couldn't be happier. Headed for US pacific coast tomorrow (60 degrees). How was your first ride? What you were hoping for?

Headed out tomorrow for a balmy 58 degree ride. Here in NE that's like hitting the lotto.

How was the heat from the engine in the 38c? (So far in the cold clime it's a neat benefit)

I noticed it more when it was cooler, on the open road in the heat, everything was hot, so it was no biggy....
