Default MP's first ride of 2008

So I couldn't take it anymore.. I couldn't stand looking at my bike and not being able to ride it. So despite near freezing temperatures yesterday I put about 200 miles on yesterday.. it felt so good to ride seeing as the last time i rode was like october.. lots of water seeping onto the road and pot holes... looking forward to warmer temps.. definitely going to throw down some miles this year..

Thats hardcore, the bug is hard to fight though. Hopefully warm weather is in our immediate future.

It sucks here because we have like one day a week that is 50-60 and is absolutely beautiful, but my bike is at home 120 miles away.

I'm hoping to get out in the next few weeks. Looking for consistent temps.
