Low to mid 50s and clear after two days of wind, rain and thunderstorms.

Anybody else riding today? http://www.bmwlt.com/forums/images/icons/icon10.gif

Yes, mid 30s and dry this morning with showers predicted for today. Normal stuff for Seattle this time of year.

Yep, 43 and heading to Atlanta on the LT in just a few minutes. This is my favorite time of the year to ride. Brisk temps and noooooo bugs.

It was a bit brisk this morning, but nothing that the gerbings could not deal with

Gerbings? Gerbings? We don't need not stinkin' Gerbings. At least not yet anyway. ;) :D

A clear 28° today here in Reno. Hopefully I won't have to ride home in the snow (like I did Monday night).

I am lucky enough to ride every day, since I don't own a car. It was about 40 when I left for work and about 70, when I finished. Got to love the desert.

31° at the time of this post . . . and I just got home. Care to ride with me without some form of heated gear, Mr. Winter?! :D

The average temperature here in Longmont, CO for the past 4 or five days has been from the high teens (7 AMish) to high 20s. My LTs thermometer has read in the mid 20s on the way in every day this week and low 40s to mid 30s or lower on the way home. I have a Chili heated vest and use the heated seats on low. I turn on the heated grips, but my gloves (BMW Motorrad Pro Winter) don't let much heat thru the palms. Thankfully, the gloves keep my hands pretty warm anyway. Since I only live about 4.5 miles from work, I take the long way to and from so that I can get in a few more minutes of riding. Generally I ride about 20 - 25 minutes each way. I stay very comfortable with the Chili about half on the control. I can always turn up the seats to the high setting and mas out the vest before I get uncomfortable. My C2 helmet keeps my head toasty (using my helmet liner and even leaving it in the trunk during the day.)
All in all, I love it.:D
