Looks like near 60 degrees both days. I need alot better than that..maybe 42-48 area.

Bike week can be cold sometimes. A good 70 degree day would be great for the Gator Nationals coming up in March and Bike Week

I know you don't need a helmet there but, is body armor out of place?

Pretty wild place. I hope you like sitting in solid bike traffic, going no where and sucking in Harley fumes..

I don't know if it's a record. But it's a heck of a lot nicer here than at home right now.

Going to the ranch for the weekend. Killing pigs and blowing **** up. Fun times.

No not a record, Wednesday at PBIR they had -900 DA and I don't think even that matches their best air.

Pitt,

I was referring to the armor in my vest and jacket . . . i'm getting ready to pick (something like) these for wearing under my jeans. They are for warm weather but, sitting in traffic smelling fumes, isn't my cup of tea.
I'd be in a timeshare for a week and then staying with my mom, sister and maybe brother.

"Summary: Padded and armored pants offer protection when worn under jeans or leathers. The Cool Air mesh provides good air flow and are designed for warm weather."
