Recorded May 31, 2020 Larry didn’t get to do any riding, b/o rain, other circumstances. Tom did rode his BMW for a 200 mile ride and his new electric bikes as well. Tom points out that riding an electric bicycle gets you used to being out in the elements, having to wear the gear, and so on, similar to what you do with motorcycle rides. Tom had a bit of an incident on his motorcycle ride when he took a turn wide and ran over the double yellow lines. we discuss lapses while riding. Topic: Slowdowns on the road by Harleys towing trailers, this leads to discussion of whether you would ever consider towing a trailer.   News: We talk about the emergence of MIPS helmets in motorcycling.  What they are, what the advantages are, and the manufacturers in the US currently who make them. We discuss the new Kawasaki design for a 3 wheel leaning motorcycle/vehicle.
