34 degrees in Chicago today. Think I'll pick up some StaBil, winterize the bike and call it quits for the season.

LOL, I was thinking the same thing. In Colorado in the 60's, yeah I know a long time ago, you could ride up to a 75cc on the hwy at age 14. Man I used to run a paper route with two feet of snow on a Honda with knobby tires...it was a kick in the ***. Now. I'm thinkin' not so much. I read Deadwood got 41 inches of the white.

I have relatives up there and she got stranded in another town due to a blizzard.

I was thinking "WHAT???". Then I realized it was November. Sometimes I forget that part of it when it's in the 70's here.

It's starting to cool off here. Forecast is for 60, lows around 40. Still riding but I'll hang it up for parts of Dec. and Jan. We get very little snow.

Just got in from a nice ride. Low 60s, bright sun, lots of color in the trees still. That snow would look good if it was Christmas Eve. I'll keep that photo in mind when I am sweating my sack off in Sturgis this August.
