I hope that stock stereo head unit swaps out easily...

No stock stereo unit swaps out easily anymore

I really wish you had a straight on shot of the dash. Still, nothing I have seen has made me want this car any less. Hubb-cruiser 2010.

I drove back roads all the way from Baltimore to Crofton today. Dealing with the wind over the bridge on Route 2 while riding on those fucking metal grates is about the scariest thing I've had to deal with in a long time.

The ride was fucking awesome. I kept grinning like a retard and eating bugs, but I couldn't stop smiling.

Wind is great on two wheels. Best advice I've read is to keep your shoulders/elbows loose. Keeping straight in the wind isn't so much a problem of the bike getting pushed around but rather you getting pushed around and imparting that force on the handlebars.

If you're wearing goggles you might be able to pull off a bandanna over your mouth. Just saying.

Today also made me realize I need cold weather riding gear. Gloves and a jacket especially.

I'm picky, and I won't wear something with visible branding, or any colours. Can anyone recommend something? I have a pretty awesome leather jacket that I found in the trash last year that'll work for a couple more weeks... Gloves I don't care so much... anyone have something they can recommend? My hands are very important to me.
