HI, My name is Mark. It's been 3 weeks since I last rode a Buell. I'm finding a little difficult at this time. I seem to be obsessing over a certain discussion board dedicated to Buells. |

Let me correct that for you; Hi, My name is Mark and I'm an addict. Mark, When you say that you quit something but have filled it's place with something else you are still an addict. It is called "cross addiction". |

MOVE south or quit whining! There is the Froggy Option ride in the snow with training wheels. When he doesnt use them the Uly takes a snow nap Hey we like winter its the only time its cool enough to ride in the day time |

And who's fault is that? Get out there and ride one. We are 28 days into the year, I've ridden in about 25 of them and haven't crashed yet. |

Snow tires or training wheels? |

Neither. In fact the Michelin Pilot Power 2CTs are the absolutely shittiest tire I have ever used in the snow, but that isn't surprising giving how terrible they are when roads are perfect. |

How do the Trails work in the cold etc? |

The Strada's suck in the snow, but work great in the rain, cold pavement, etc. |

I haven't been using my 1125R much as I need to get the CR to catch up on the odometer, but I can't complain about the Trails. They feel just as good in the cold as they did in the summer. I really like that tire, I'll probably put them on the rest of the fleet. |

My meetup group is riding up to Ocala today for a run thru the forest on 182, and a ride back down 561. Good 300 mile run with lots of scenery and even some rolling hills in the forest. It's around 50 degrees right now, but it will warm up nicely. |

What about that day when you crashed your Blast 6 times on the way to work? |
