    Force of habit I used to do the bulletins for my motorcycle buddies to prepare for winter. Just boredom.

    Oh Yeah 80 & sunny 40% humidity today, were in full blown winter mode

    I used to put a small engine heating pad on the bottom of the motor to keep the chill off and keep condensation from forming

    Never had rodents in my garage. I Assume bigger predictors kept them away


    Yeah those real cold nights even in a heated garage the block gets cold as heck unless you have a heated floor.
    I used to ride my bike year round and this was the only way I could crank a V twin over after a couple 10 degree nights
