Anyone heard from Tx White Knight lately? Any of you Texas folks heard from him? I haven't seen him post in a while, and was just checking. I hope he's out rolling on some miles! :)

I am still alive an kicking 'lol' I was working in Ga for a couple of months. One of those deals where I was doing their stuff at least 40 hours a week and then doing my regular 50 hours a week for Dallas "LOL"

I also have that growing problem we seem to get as we get older but they are going to microwave that next month so I will be able to ride in comfort "LOL" at least it will make it so i dont have to take avadart or the other meds any more

Thanks for your concers

So true Guy, the other 2 forums I frequent a lot didnt say anything.

It great not to be working 80 to 100 hours a week, makes every day feel like a vacation :D

Well, we hope everything goes well for you also:) Try not to work so hard, we don't:p Happy New Years to you.

[Tx White Knight]

I have already told them I am not going anyplace anymore :)

[Trailace]

Good luck Steve and I hope everything goes well. Also try not to work so many hours any more. :D

[Tx White Knight]

It wouldn’t be so bad but they will only pay me for up to 20 hours of OT :( I am trying to cut it down to just 10 hours of OT a week, I have found a TN3270 emulator for my phone now to find a Cisco VPN client and I can do my thing on Saturdays as long as I have a phone signal :D

Steve,

Is that a Cycleport 'asphalt surfing suit' you are wearing in your avatar? If so, how do you like it?

p.s. Hope everything ok with the 'microwave job".

[Tx White Knight]

Bob, yep it is a Cycleport 'asphalt surfing suit' it is the mesh one and for Texas it is great.

In the summer you still sweat a little but as soon as you start to roll it feels like ridding in the shade of a bridge. I figure if I go down I may break some bones but I wont loose a lot of hide :)

In the winter I put the rain liner in to break the wind and dont have any problems using layers, but I did get a Gerbing Jacket liner but I have not tried it yet, been using their G3 gloves for 2 years and they are great

I bought one same color a couple of years ago. I like it a lot both for summer and colder riding. I did 'crash test' it up in the Yukon Territory last summer. Didn't leave any skin on the road, but I got some leg and knee injuries. Probably would have been much worse if I was just wearing jeans. I wore out a pair of jeans, wearing them under that Kevlar. I suppose that is a downside, but I think these suits are about the best and safest on the market.

Two years ago I rode across the Mojave desert in July and maaaan, was it hot! Triple digit temps, much in the teens. I had the suit on with just LDComfort shorts, synthetic T-Shirt and a wet vest. It was soooo hot that every time I opened my face shield I slammed it back shut. I think that suit was a life saver for me with the heat. Didn't help that I was riding the Goldwing - they generate their own heat. That suit was the only 'shade' in hundreds of miles.

Wayne now has the suit in hi-viz yellow/green. I was hessitant to buy one of those, but I kind of wish I did.
