If you live in a cold weather region you might feel my pain. I had a hard time letting of summer this year, but after the one last ride for the toys for tots parade, i decided to throw in the towel. One last wash and away they go till 2013.

Bikes look good at least. My winter started over a month ago and it was too 2 weeks before that to ride so at least your lucky to have that extra month.
