woke up early ( again ) and it was close to 40º by 8am. I was moving awful slow and finally close to noon I started getting ready for a ride. with fleece lined jeans under the new klim latitude pants I knew my legs would be warm, I wore the klim misano latitude jacket along with the gerbing heated jacket liner to keep the upper body warm and wore the Olympia wolf Gore-Tex gloves. I plugged the jacket liner in but never turned it on, the thermometer on the mighty ST1300 was showing 46º when I pulled out of my driveway. I took tireman ave. east then took w. grand blv. east to woodward ave. I haven't been that way in some years and with all the construction going on it will be awhile before taking going way again. I took woodward south, I wanted to take some pic's while I was downtown but there was no safe place to park. I headed east on Jefferson ave. and surprised my brother with a visit, I've only seen him once all summer but I told him that we need to get back to visiting each other every couple weeks which means i'll be visiting him every couple weeks
