Still Stuck In 4 Wheels
OK, it was in the 60’s F yesterday, 50’s F today here in Indy, but now I think I should be building an ark since it’s been raining so much. Tomorrow looks to be clear and sunny, but back to the 30’s F in the morning.
So I’m the classic fair-weather rider. There, I admit it! This past Saturday was bright and sunny with the thermometer on the short side of 50 F. I bundled up with a couple layers under the leathers and got the Ducati 1098 S Tricolore out for a ride and made it all the way up to Ducati Indianapolis on the north side for an espresso. Brrr! Didn’t I say I was a fair-weather rider?
Now on the other hand, Jarrod, our other blogger here at redbullindianapolisgp.com, is already racking up the miles on his Triumph Tiger. He’s fully equipped with all the foul-weather gear, heated jackets, pants and gloves, tank bags, saddle bags and wind screens. Hey Jarrod, my H3 Hummer has heated seats! Yeah, I know, I’m the ultimate fair-weather rider!
I do think spring is around the corner, with the grass starting to green up and some stuff starting to poke up through the fall leaves still piled up in the flower beds. With that said, when the weather does finally break, it’s going to be a choice of cleaning up the yard or going for the first big spring ride.
Experience tells me, the yard is going to lose out.
See you all next week on redbullindianapolisgp.com.
