 I remember 35 years ago ( 19at time ) wearing a denim jacket, thin leather gloves, minus 15, 2am, 50 mile journey taking 4hrs ( usually 1hr ish, on single track road in Highlands ) on a Suzuki 125 GT twin, stopping every mile or so to get warm from the exhausts, thinking WHY am I freezing my balls off!!!!( I was as hard as nails back then ), now I know better, better jacket, better gloves, and will wait for a better day or take the car instead  |
