Default Spring Fever

Yesterday I opened the garage and took the cover off.
Behold a thing of beauty.
Paint was nice and glossy. Engine nice and clean.
Checked the tire pressure. Perfect.
Oil was right on the mark.
Checked the nuts and bolts. Nice and tight.
Plenty of gas in the tank.
Would she turn over?
She kicked in on the 1st try.
Sat back and listened to the exhaust while she warmed up.
All warmed up, dropped her in gear and proceeded to
plow eight inches of snow here in NJ.
I'm sorry,you thought I was talking about my SG.
I was talking about my snowthrower. Am I on the right forum?
Can't believe we got all this snow.
Should be another week before I get on the road.

Yeah, I rode to work last Tuesday, and today I am looking at 10 new inches of snow since Friday. The snowblower has definitely had more action than the Hog.

I hope you are right about the weather getting up to 60 HD4DP!

Here in RI it's hard to beleive I went for a ride on Thurs. in 65 degree temps. We now have 6 inches of fresh snow and it's so cold today nothing is melting. We do have warmer temps scheduled for the end of the week. It's a good thing, I have to ride the bike to the dealer on Sat. for my 1000 mile service.

Spent Sunday afternoon getting all the ice and snow off the rest of the driveway.

Yep, rode here in VA last Sunday & Tuesday.....
Friday had 6+ inches of snow and freezin' @ss cold.
I'll probably get a ride in this coming Friday.
At least February is gone and sneak a ride in once every week or so.
Really liked the way you snuck that little diddy in on us.
I cracked up when it got to the snow plowing part.......
You took me from last Tues. to Friday in a split second.

Good one!!!!!
