Well we did 450 kms today, it was 12 celsius, the first have was miserable it was barely ten and it rained a bit and was very windy,but halfway trough the ride it started to fell warmer ( ok the coffee and food helped). the second half was awesome even though it was cold. Cheers to veronique for whom it was her first ride and her first ride on her new bike as well, whe did that pretty well.!
here are some pics, of course you''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''ll recognize the dignified old lady amongst the others.. ( different post cause the files are too big)
My goodness ..you guys did well for what may be you last big-ish run this year ..
450 Klms , 10-12 deg C? ..a bit of wind ? a bit of rain ?... all in one day ..
Here you would be worshiped as gods !!  That sort of weather is a just maybe, only if I absolutely have to ride situation .... why? because ..I might get a chill?
Me and the misses did just 280 klm today ... All great roads , dry , warm, near 20 C , no wind , sunny as ..a bloody bueatiful day guys ...but my misses bum is dead because I would not stop on the way home she is still smiling at me , but with gritted teeth , if know what I mean
You guys take care over your winter and do not do anything stupid ..like trying to ice skate on your bikes
While you are servicing your rides , we will be rolling up the klms and sweating our arse off on some days ..

I love the colder weather. It''s gorgeous around here right now with the leaves changing colour. The air is crisp and smells clean; you never need to worry about sweating inside your gear. The snow does put a damper on things though. But, for every time there is a season...
I''d get bored with having the same temperature year round.

Hmm, Gaudalajara? That could be a good destination for Dragon and I, right about now. Some cool weather to start but warming as we go south... and beer at the end of the ride. Woohoo!!
