| Well summer has finally arrived here in Texas which means the daily commute is nothing short of driving through the Fiery Furnace. Typically I take the windshield off of "M" and switch to a 3/4 helmet to help reduce the effect of the Texas heat during the daily commute. Well with the windshield off I’m getting sand blasted, I don’t know if it is just being thrown up from other vehicles or if the sand and gravel haulers aren’t covering there loads. I feel it mostly on my neck and chin but I can also feel it on my legs through my jeans. The windshield would protect my neck and face but when traffic is stop and go then there is little to no air circulation. So I guess I need to make a choice between Hellfire or Brimstones. Aren’t I punny? |
