RE: long winter

The older I get the longer winter seems.

Wisconsin here too. It's not just the new bike in the garage - this is the worst winter we have had in my lifetime, or at least as far back as my fadingmemory takes me. And I've been living here for 50 years!

RE: long winter

I know your pain. I was going through the same thing this time last winter. Finalized the deal on my Fatty in early Feb last year. I didn't think Old Man Winter was ever going to go away last year. Then again, I'm getting the same feeling THIS year...[:'(]

RE: long winter

Wisconsin here also. I made the same mistake. Bought a new ride at the end of the riding season last year and now have to tough it out for about 6-8 more weeks.

RE: long winter

Yes, this winter has been a really long one. I'm not too far from Fargo ND we had several inches of snow yesterday and we won't see temps above zero for several days with wind chills around the -35 range. My scoot is at the dealers until sometime in late March (I'm having my tins painted) so Ican't even go sit on it and make potato potato noises

RE: long winter

It is not you. I put my bike in storage in mid November, and have not had weather that has been good enough to take it out of storage for a day. Usually there has been at least a couple of days in each winter month that I can get the bike out. So yes to me it has been a very long winter. I keep hopeing that I can take my bike home by March 15th but I am not going to count on it. It also does not help if you have had mods done to it and cant get out to test them.
