Made it the whole way without stopping once, so I was happy with that.

One more note - My hands were fvcking cold. The burning is just starting to go away, and I've been at work for 20 minutes now. I need to get gloves or something next time I'm down near the shop. Hopefully it will be a lot warmer on the way home..

EDIT: Right now it's 36 feels like 30 and sunny. Should be about 46 on the way home..

That is good to hear the ride went well!!! The magnet seems like it will not stay, but I have had zero issues with them.

Gloves are going to help a lot with keeping the fingers warmer and add a bit of comfort.

My wife road into the shop today, and I am planning on riding to the shop in a week. I have to let it warm up a bit first.

Glad to hear you are having fun! Keep us posted.
