Nidoqueen's Journal, 27 August 2018

For the first time in years, I rode my motorcycle to work today! Hey, guess what... my HEAD has lost weight. I was mildly surprised as I pulled onto the interstate to feel my helmet slide back a little as I picked up speed. By the time I was doing highway speeds, I could feel the tug of the helmet straps. I'll have to do some readjusting before I head back home at the end of the day.

On another note, my leather no longer fits. I have ONE quality leather jacket for motorcycle riding. It cost well over $300 AND I've got a huge "Lady Rider" patch on the back, plus other association patches on it so I really love my leather, but it is a 3x and I no longer am. I need something closer to an XL or smaller :-(. It's a good thing, but it's not... I can't afford to replace my leather (yet) but then again, the riding season is short up here (Maine) and will be over in another month to six weeks. By next riding season, I expect to be at least another 20# down, maybe more, so I guess I'll wait till tax return time to look at a new one.

Happy Monday everyone! Keep the shiny side up.

congrats on the size losses. maybe another option is to have the jacket retailored. there may be some talented leather worker/tailor in your area when you are ready to have it adjusted. I know how I feel about my favorites.

Had to do the same with my leathers last year. Fortunately, there is an awesome leather shop I use that moved my patches for a very reasonable price. Will probably need to do the same next year too, but I am so looking forward to it.

@Heather, that is a great idea! The shadow box. I'm gonna have to get hubs to make that for me.
