I'm jealous. Winter has been horrible here in Cleveland ohio. Just doesn't seem like it's ever gonna end. I just sent my tins to joe to powdercoat and I'm hoping by the time I get them back the weather will be good enough to finally start getting some rides in.

I stopped in at the "luau" Yankee HD in Bristol, CT had going on, thought I'd see a lot more bikes, riders busting them out for the first ride of of the season...but no

the lot was packed full of cages.
Anyway, If mine had been out of storage Saturday I would have slipped in a ride too..

btw: Did you hear something about more snow next week?

Little snow tonight I think, dusting, and hopefully RAIN Wednesday thru Thursday to wash away the salt and sand....

I was going to get the bob out but I was battling a head cold all weekend and just didn't think I could do it. Maybe next weekend if it's a decent temp. It was 64 here in MD Saturday.

Looks like we're gonna have some descent weather here for a couple days (in the 60s), then back to crap for a couple days middle of the week, then descent again by the end of the week. Hopefully spring is around the corner here!
