Default 1 hour 10 minutes and counting till blast off
What a day! Getting out of school an hour early to go to watch girls team play basketball! (My boys team lost last night so seasons over) The temp has slowly rose to upper 50s so I'll be riding there! About an hour and a half run on a good strech of road. Should be home by 6:30 with temp still in the mid 40's. What a way to start the weekend!!! 1 hour 6 minutes!!!

16 Hours and I will be en route to DAYTONA via the Road King Classic. It is a pleasant 3.5 hour ride from where I live.

It nearly hit 50 today. But there is so much salt and sand on the streets, it'll be July before it's safe to get out and ride!

I'm completely and totally envious!!! Temps have been halfway reasonable around here lately, but the streets are still a disgusting mess. Aside from the ice all over the side steets & parking lots, the main drags are filthy with road salt, gravel, sand, and every other form of refuse & corruption you can think of. Me thinks it'll be a month or so before I can experience the joy you're feeling. Ride safe!!! (and dress warm!! lol)

-31 degrees here this a.m. Supposed to get ANOTHER 4 to 6" of snow tonight & tomorrow a.m. That will go with the 3.5 feet we have on the ground already. 14 hours and counting until I rip the front end off my bike tomorrow. 1,416 hours and counting until I get to ride it.
