Oh one other thing comes to mind...almost forgot. Did some maintenance checks, added a little oil (though not below the low line) but due to the cold temperatures did also check the air in the tires before the Thursday ride. Found the front tire was at 22 pounds (usually at 28) and the rear at 32 (usually at 38). With the cold temperatures, be sure to check your tires often. Proper inflation helps fuel mileage, handling, and also improves the ride. Ride safe always!
