Yes...but only to the grocery store. I bring my Kriega backpack and tailbag and haul back whatever I need then come straight home. I think it takes me more time to gear up than the actual ride is. I have been keeping my helmet on the whole time, even when in the store. It’s no different than before because I never leave my helmet outside and I was always too lazy to carry it. Now it does double duty on protection. If someone coughs or sneeze I just shut the visor and if I need to, I also shut it. Hehe.
I went out a week ago after a couple days of rain and a wash/bike detail. On a day with no expected rain, a cloud wrung a sponge and a deluge of water hit while I was in the store. It stopped when I got out then did it again at the next store. I had a good laugh, as did the guys in the store who said, “Regretting your life decisions? You weren’t expecting that one, huh? Neither were we.” I said....”It was worth it!” Nothing a detail spray can’t fix with a microfiber cloth!
It’s probably the best mileage I’ve gotten so far....3 weeks to the tank LOL
Ride safe...ride alone
