It's that time of year...

....when the leathers get put away and out come the Dri-rider. Riding home
from work last night in the balmy 30 deg I was becoming decidedly warm and a
sweat broke out (for the benefit of Melbourne people, that's a condition
caused by excessive heat, you may have read about it). The sun is up later,
girls are starting to dress in skimpy outfits, and they even occasionally
wave to you as you ride past (very occasionally sadly, but hey, I'll take
it).

Ah, 'tis good to be a rider.

Cheer up Pisshead, things are looking up

Dri rider got put away ages ago, rode to work in my tee shirt this
morning. Loved it too.

Cheers,

I can't do that 'cause at ~80k the sleeves flap about too much and annoy my
upper arms...

What do your upper arms do when they get annoyed? Flex biceps?

Far be it from me to start another "Melbourne weather vs Sydney weather" war,
but if you ever want to know what hot weather is like, just ask us

Hehe, the joke is, of course, that I'm a Tassie boy originally, so I regard
18 as the height of summer.

You mean your confession of being a "Sydney Wanker" was all made up...
I feel so cheated.

And this summer we will expect to see the return of the much
appreciated micro mini as this is the fad in Europe -- ggreee

Oh my, that was witty, and unexpected.

 

I liked it.

I was expecting someone to go for the open goal, but I was surprised it was
Theo, I thought he'd do better. Insults ain't what they used to be...

 

That's odd, a couple of times in the last week or so I've left the Dri Rider
at home and changed to the leather jacket (and gloves)...

I probably should have said the 'Summer' Dri-rider, with the liner taken
out.

It was there.

You wanted an insult? Why didn't you say?
