54°F is Spring time. Close to 70°F this morning and not warming up very much today, will be 50°F in the AM. Mostly looks great though.

What are those bars you have at the passenger seat? I like that look, and it also looks functional for strapping something down. Thanks!

I live in South Western Pennsylvania myself.

I hate that stupid ground hog. I been advocating for getting rid of him for years. He almost always predicts 6 more weeks of winter,

Replace him with Gus. At least we could get some scratch offs from him.

Winter North of the Mason-Dixon Line sucks.

Lived over your way and went to elementary through high school there (Bethel Park). Moved to upstate NY and suffered winters up there for 15 years. Have been living here in South Central PA since a job transfer took me to Aberdeen Proving Grounds, MD. Winter is not so bad here, just above the Mason Dixon Line.
