Tonight we have ice and wind (they were good beans) and a few accidents.
Seriously. It is windy outside......OH, and 26 degrees or something like that.

It's sunny and in the 60F here in Germany. Time to take out the bikes. Think I'll do a jaunt down the B48.

Here in MI it was nice...for a single day! St. Patricks day was beautiful, but I didn't dare go out because the entire state was drunk. The next day it got cold and a couple days later we had an ice storm. Why do I live here again? : (

I have six inches of ice on the hill to my house. I am hoping to get down it, and back up by the first week in April. If I am lucky.

I did see a guy on a ninja out in the snow the other day.

Well crap, I'm going to have to mow the grass for the second time this weekend!

Sure did feel good to have 80F degrees for a couple of days this week. We are back in the fifties and sixties for now.

Heck of it is, I still have not had time to ride much this season.

Now there is a prediction for snow......

Mid-80's in Sunny Florida. Put the winter gear away, it's almost too hot.

You know the dread you feel in October when you feel the first hint of winter in the wind? Well, those of us that complain about the summertime heat feel the same dread right about now. $350 a/c bills, here we come!!!

We've been in the 70s and 80s, but this weekend it's rain, rain, and more rain...
At least I was riding all during the week : )

If I still lived in Kansas city I would've been riding already. But since I live in chicagoland, Ive only rode twice. :-( Now I'm about a week or two away from having elbow surgery. That will keep me off my bike for like 3 months. So all need to stop worrying about weather. It could always be worse. LOL

Weather's gradually getting better up here in Vancouver, BC. Around low to mid 50's I guess. Got a couple of rides in without getting rained on last weekend. Looking forward to the real warm days, and pointing her in the direction of Whistler!

My rule is, if it's over 40, it's ride time, with that rule I ride year round...

Does it ever get under 40 in GA?

My rule is- as long as there's no ice on the roads.

Glitch, sadly, it's not what the highs get up to that determines my riding. It's what the temp is when I go to work. If it's under 32, the military say "No, No." It's just now starting to bump 32 when I head out so riding season is officially about to kick off (between snow flurries anyway). Tomorrow will be the first ride of the year.

Yeah, but not for long, the exception was this past winter.
"No, No."
I hate that. At least you'll enjoy it that much more when it's "Yes, Yes"
Tomorrow will be the first ride of the year.
Enjoy!
