Geckos & windshields

Yes, that is a gecko, but not the creepy little Geico one. My wife and I go to Hawai'i often and usually in the cottage we rent, there are a few geckos running around on the walls. I think they are supposed to be a harbinger of good luck on the islands. As to what that is clipped to my windshield, it's my garage door opener. I guess that' there to avoid confusing me with a real biker (ha).. I'm not sure real bikers have garage door openers. Or garages for that matter. I much prefer to have the windshield on. It keeps the wind pressure off me and just makes for a pleasant ride. Recently, it's been so hot here in the South, I've had it off, but then the bugs got so bad it's back on now. Even with the 'shield I'll wear my full face helmet if it looks like rain or if it's cold. Usually, I'll just wear my half helmet with no visor and it's fine with the windshield. Oh, on the other side of the windshield is my work pass to get through the gate at my job. Keeping it clipped to the glass keeps me from having to stop and find neutral so I can fish around in my pocket for the pass. Now, I just pull up in front of the RFID scanner and the gate goes up.

Thanks for the compliment on my bike, by the way!

Peace
Aaron
