It's about time man! It's 51 here today but that is a record low. I've been out quite a bit already. Enjoy the weekend!

Summer? Seems a ways off here in WI. We have been below normal (70) for something like 25 out of 27 days. Plus near record rains. We seem to get one day of sun, then clouds and rain for the next 4 days after that. I'm tired of it!

North Dakota has been pretty much the same. I think we're going to skip spring and go straight from winter to summer...eventually that is.

Not much better here in PA! As of right now it's the 5th rainiest spring on record and were still climbing. It's getting to the point where if you wanna ride be prepared to get wet!

Same here in Chicago. I keep waiting for the weather to break and actually act like Spring but mother nature is fighting us.

Heck, I left work early this past Monday for my mile walk home....it was 42 degrees and windy at 2pm. The average for May 16th is 70 degrees! That's almost 30 below the average! And it's not like this was just one day, it's been brutal for weeks, like you said.

I have the gear to keep me warm and dry....but come on, I shouldn't need my March/April gear in Mid-May.

I've rode to work 2 times this year because of rain here in PA. I guess it better than shoveling snow.
