My grips were on Max (Billy-Ray) today! I would still do with them sat at my desk now.

Liners are all back in my textiles. Next step will be to break out the heated vest and gloves if the temperature continues to drop.

The morning commute in the dark and the drawing in nights had me ressurect the motorcycle cornering lights project I started a couple of years ago but forgot about. The prototype works on the bench but I need to build the switching circuit and try it out with a set of LED spotlights before building version 2 which can be mounted on the bike.
