Four of us did a breakfast ride this morning (high 30's outside). I know I
won't render much sympathy with those temps but we meet at Starbucks in Mesa
AZ and did the regular 100mile round trip ride to the local twistie haunt.

Yes that's my bike parked out on the flat. I've got a halfway decent excuse
though (no pun intended) and once rolling I don't ride much different than
before the deer thing. We all rode somewhat conservative this morning,
mainly due to cold tire temps. Also three bagers: my Sprint, a Trophy, BMW
R1150RT plus a VTX-1300 about a mile back from us. The 1st three bikes also
had their heated grips on "high" this morning :) BTW, those two Harleys in
the second photo belong to a couple, "literally" or a retired ASU professor
and his wife. The 6 of us, plus a guy on a BMW GS were the only early
breakfast riders in the local canyon (US88) before 9:00AM.
