Made it out two days in a row.

Just chaps, heated vest and long sleeves. It's not that bad.

I don't care for +2° riding anymore though. Chance of hidden ice in the shadows.

The passes are all freezing too.

I went for a short rip yesturday morning, it was very chili. The Bike said 6 C, finger tips went numb turned around and headed home.

Preping the Turkey for dinner now.

Happy Easter yall.

It's strange how you become connected to ****.

I'll buy a knife myself. Hell - I'll buy two or three, toss them when they get dull. Ha ha.

I dunno if I'll spend the $175+ for a similar knife. Just hope some kit found it - is safe with it, and gives it a good home.

I feel for you guys in ND you got hit real hard. While I'm complaining about what we got it's nothing compared to you. I'm approx 2 1/2 hours north of Minot.

I'm in southern Ontario and was able to sneak out for 2 lil blasts before we saw the white crap falling. The next few weeks are showing some decent enough days to get out and enjoy a ride.
