WooHoo! Happy to see you guys are able to get the bikes out finally. I don't know how you do it, going MONTHS like that without being able to ride. I'd be in a straight-jacket myself if I had to go that long without riding!

Enjoy and it's only the beginning of a great year I'm sure.

Got mine out of storage 2 weeks ago. Still waiting to ride. I THINK tomorrow will be warm enough, and at least SUNNY - NO snow, NO rain predicted. THen again, this is New England, and as the saying goes "if you don't like the weather, wait a minute". So ... it could be a totally different forecast by tonight. All I'm asking is just to be able to get out for at least a little ride, is that too much to ask of the weather gods??

I was out today for the first time since October. 45 degrees and sunny.

Put about 50 miles on. It was great!!

Rain for the next 4 days now.
