your right thats GH modeling his cold weather gear

the cold had us stay at dunks for a while and we decided to skip a loop ride that we had planned and find some lunch instead, mental note "brew ha ha" isnt  :drink: brew, so we took a chance on the artery pub instead. had a nice lazy lunch and  :drink: GH was kind enough to bring me a growler of his local favorite which i am enjoying as i post tonight. really is good stuff  :2vrolijk_21:

by the time we left lunch it was after 3pm and we each had a long ride back to try and beat sundown and the cold

i stopped above the town for a few quick pics

The neighbors from the cabin in N. Wisconsin emailed pictures today...  So much for fall up there - the trees are almost bare already!  We didn't make it up this fall and now it's to late.... ???

You have lowers.

Why were your legs freezing?

No chaps?

You wore pajamas?

No socks?

Had a great time, a little chilly, just a reminder of how good it is to be alive  ??? This pic was taken on the ride home. There is someone flying around if you look in the upper left of the pic. See 'em?  ;) Wonder how cool it was up there??
