How do you guys kill this sad time that there is no riding?

Same as you. Just add buying raffle tickets.
No snow for snowmobiling so it sucks.

I used to spend the winter tinkering in the garage on whatever "upgrades" I thought I needed. This year, it's Playstation with my kids, lots of movies, and bourbon.

First thing you gotta do, is leave that 3rd world country, known as Ilinois...
(I know, I know, that's rich coming from a guy in SoCal!) But at least we get to ride.

Down here in Florida we pass the time riding. It was 80 degrees here on New Year’s Day.

Though I will admit during the summer we bake on our Harley ovens and crave a trip up north.

Took a part time job as an associate welding instructor @ the local Trade School. High School Juniors. Pay, not over the top, but rewards are worth it.

Time off, I take no "time off". If the roads are clear and it's at least around 35* I'm riding. Longest the bike has ever sat was around 2 weeks during and after a snow storm. I didn't buy the bike to gather dust in the garage...

Get on that bike and ride!
