It'll be gone soon though, supposed to get rain and 40-50's first of the week so that'll take care of it. Then I just need some warm days.

I'd shoot myself if I lived up north and couldn't escape! :lol:

I'm also having withdrawls - been too cold for my blood to ride, even if if the roads would allow for it.

I know what you mean. Mine ran into problems toward the end of the season, so I've been wrenching on it with my neighbor when we can. I'd just like to hear it run. :lol:

I went for a ride after Christmas, started out at around 25F and warmed up to maybe 50. It was a chilly day though, sun wasn't doing much and there was all the sand and salt from the Christmas day snow laying in patches here and there, had to watch out for that. Took it out for a short ride last week when it was 53 or so, it was nice. I just hate having to spend 30 minutes (I exaggerate ) getting layered and geared up enough to not freeze on a ride and feeling constricted from the clothes.

This has been another cold winter for us so far compared to the last 10-15 yrs. I got spoiled by those mild winters.

I'm getting more irratated about the traffic that I don't have to deal with on the bike, but I do now with the car...

I had a little withdrawal on NYE when it was nice outside. But I'm OK now, I have the subie to play in the snow.

We are supposed to be in the low 50s this weekend and you can bet I'll be out putting a few miles on the bikes!

At least he missed your face.

The snow is slowly disappearing here, but it's leaving dirty, sticky slop in its wake. My 1,100-foot gravel driveway won't be passable via sportbike for weeks. No point washing the cars during that time, either.

A very lovely 70F today. Yawn. I think Ill just head home and sit on my ass.

I got tired of being at my storage unit and having to piss so I left a water bottle there. Got back from riding and about burst. I was getting lined up and then it just turned into a crazy sprinkler.
