Zero electric motorcycle …

I was offered a test ride on a Zero, and what an experience 🙂
Lots of torque and almost no sound at all. A really strange experience to twist the throttle on a silent bike and shoot forward with a slight whizzzzzz 🙂
Roads was partly damp after a shower, and sports mode made the skinny rear tyre slip and skid all over the place. Part of the problem is most likely that the amount of torque is unexpected high on a small light bike like this.
Overall finish is good, but brakes and rear suspension is not top of the class.

Motorcycle Rally

Ride the route on the map and solve a few tasks on the way (at manned or unmanned posts).
i’ll probably not win this year, but it’s a great way to spend a sunny saturday afternoon day in April 🙂

Infrared heated vest …

First ride today with the InnerHeat battery powered vest.
10 degrees Celsius, strong head wind and light rain. Had the vest on highest power (step 5), and I was really hot – step 3 would have been better, but I didn’t bother to stop and change settings. The battery will last for 6 hours on step 5 and 20 hours on step 1.
Really a useful tool for the Scandinavian climate !!!
