Today was my first time out riding in nearly 5 months 
Broke my leg 11 weeks ago and couldnt ride when i got back from california the beginning of November. It was a nice cold 27 degrees this morning with windchill and I almost decided not to ride because i had to put the gauges back on and such and didnt have a lot of time because I had things to do. Then starting it and letting it warm up changed my mind so i went and got my gauges, put them on, grabbed my gear and went to do my errands on the bike
I couldnt find my thermal insert for my joe rocket jacket but i had other layers to make up for it however i shouldve put thermals on over my jeans because i could not feel my legs after about 20 miles. How do you guys keep your chins warm? Air seems to flow up under and just make the under part of my chin and neck sting in really cold weather... I think i have a polypro neck thing in my pack of issued gear, ill see if that works but Id like to know what you guys use to keep the neck/chin warm.
I had aparrantly forgotten how amazing the bike was in that time and how much power it had. It was nice having the freedom on the bike after 2 months of crutches and virtually having no independence during that time. Also ran a half a can of seafoam in the tank to see if it cleans anything out.
Good day

back dude!
Good ol' Marine Corps gear!
Yeah it will come off whenever I reach my destination. I dont think anything that looks like a ski mask goes over well near any business
