Hi Pete,

A windshield is a must for winter riding.

A whole box of Mr. Bill dolls heh? I hope your treating them well right up to that fateful "OH NOOO!" moment.

I will not move her during wintertime as long as there is salt on the roads.

Can't wait to move her though ...

Sorry, 72 degrees F in the central coast of California, USA.

..and yes, I ride almost daily, 60 miles one-way on some seriously fun curvy roads on my daily commute.
