Already bug season

When the winter season rain and cold weather goes away, the bugs come out in full force. I don’t mind wiping the windshield down every time I pull inside the Manetarium.

That’s all part of being a daily rider. You get used to the different rituals you do before you take off and when you return.

I started using bottled water that I pour into a spray bottle. This seems to break down the bugs mess if done carefully. I do use towels that are not abrasive and soft on the windshield avoiding scratching the snot out of the outer surface.

Another step I take is spraying Honda Detailer cleaner onto the freshly wiped windshield and apply a layer of protection.

Back from Maui

The good thing, I was able to hop back on the sled and ride. The not so good thing, we lost that beautiful Maui weather and scenery. It doesn’t matter that it rains on my motorcycle rides, I’m completely used to that but jumping from paradise temperature down to the upper 30’s isn’t a happy vibe for sure.

On a side note, I really enjoy the have XM satellite radio. It makes the commute much nicer being able to listen a large variety of music and not have to flip around for radio stations that have a strong enough signal that is bearable for listening.

I still need to program a channel list. I’m still only using a small portion of channels that are in the R&B and Rap genre. There are many other stations that I have found but not programmed in yet.
