My Fort Collins buddy sent me a picture last week when he and the boys rode up to the Mishawaka Amphitheatre during a lull in the weather. My western friends are all about BMW's and old English iron (Triumph's, Norton's and BSA mostly.) and love to break my chops about my preference for MoCo bike's.

He made sure to tell me that the barmaid noted that they were the first up this year, and he added "I Guess all the pirate riders were in town with their loud pipes saving lives!"

Get out there and represent us.

I have one for my Glide and didn't believe the talk of them not discharging, so bought its special charger. When new it took a while to come up to a full charge, but now only takes a few minutes.

No heated garage, so I can't do any of the little projects I have plans for on either bike.
Same problem here, although your weather is worse than ours.

Ground Hog Day is Sunday ( 02/02 ). Don't expect much change. If he see's his shadow, 6 more weeks of winter...anything else will be a lie..!!

BTW....he predicted Denver to win the Super Bowl....or was it the Steelers..??

the ballon popping dog on the jay leno show picked the seahawks...should i call my bookie? i got in a $100 per square pot at the golf course and my numbers came up 0 and 0! already won $300. pot pays every time the score changes, each quarter, and most of the money at the end of the game. they also run the numbers backward and pay on that too. hope that 0/0 number comes up many times!!

I have a stack of boxes of new parts for the Dresser and the Slim in the Garage, the temp in the garage is lower than outside it seems.
Ohio weather sucks right now, it seems the heat wave won't start here till Wed this week, their saying a high of 31 deg.
I get to go outside about every hour with the new Newfoundland Puppy I have, he grabs every stick he can find and uses his nose as a Snow Plow, I'm standing there "please remember why we came out here", lol.

International Parts Manager in Fairbanks Alaska. We aren't having that problem this year. Been unseasonably warm here. Very few call-outs for frozen trucks. If it wasn't for the little snow that is on the roads, I'd be riding!

An open carport and 20*F days do not constitute working on "winter projects" of any kind.

(Sorry, have to post something. 2/5. Can't access certain things until 5days and 5 posts.)
