Default Another day of riding

I put a taller windshield on my bike this morning and took off for a ride. I came back around noon, changed back to the shorter one and went riding again. I just got home a little while ago.... it's 4:23 PM here now. The weather has been beautiful for riding. Today it was in the low 70's. I started off with a light jacket and ended up with just a sweatshirt on. I wish this weather would hold on until summer..... sigh....but it ain't gonna happen. It'll turn cold again soon.... 50's tomorrow, 60's for the weekend. Don't y'all feel sorry for me for having to ride so much? Oh well... someone has to do it, might as well be me.

The 21" windshield gives me more wind deflection and just about eliminates my helmet buffeting. But I have to look through it instead of over and it bothers me to do that. So I put the 17" one back on. Maybe I need a 19"... but can't afford another one.
