When i go to school, I always park in the parking garage, and there is bike parking right at the exit of the garage. In the warm it was always interesting to see the different bikes parked there. But now that its cold its a game between me and my friend to guess how many bikes there will be parked there. Recently there have been no bikes at all, so today we were leaving and i flashed a 0 to him in my rear view mirror, and he gave a 0 too. We pulled around the corner, and I am not joking..... a guy was pulling on his helmet and jumping on his 08 Ninja 250. Followed us all the way to the highway before we gave him the right-away and a wave....

Now for those of you that were not in ohio today... it was in the 20's and just standing in the middle of campus there was probably a windchill of single digets! Let alone riding a bike at highway speeds!!!

THAT is dedication...... or wait, was it stupidity? :idk: I cant remember....

There are a few guys around here who ride no matter what the temperature. I was talkin to some guys at a bike shop who said that 7/8 of the guys who worked there rode to work when it hit 5* last year and the roads had just gotten clean. Pretty badass.

Yea, 08' because it was all green. No all green in 09'.... it looked pretty clean though. Had a Two Brothers can on it, sounded kinda funny, but I guess better than stock..... I wish i would have stopped to talk, but i had to get to work... and I was freezing.

NTS, have you ever been in Grove City??? Just asking...

Cold sucks. I really want to get the Buell out. But I've got a good book to hold me over. "25 Years of Buell".
