    Went for a ride today also. To the motorcycle show in Greenville, SC. Was 31 F when we left the house this morning at 0715. Was all leathered up, seat heat on low, grip heat on high.

    Was a little chilly on the way down, nice on the way back this afternoon. Filled it with gas near Spartanburg, premium was $3.45 a gallon. Not much left from a 20.

    Saw many bikes out today in west central FL (of course it was pushing 80 this afternoon). A group of ~15 goldwings passed me as I was turning into our subdivision this afternoon. Must be a local club as I see them fairly often in the area. I only rode a goldwing once and was very impressed by the handling and performance. Not a sport bike but much better then my HD Roadking.

    Very nice. I understand a 250 mile trip is just a morning jaunt for the Goldwing owner.
