I've noticed the same thing, warm weather and around 200-250 on "General Chat", now around 400-500. I'm sitting here by the fire watching the temperature drop through the floor, at least I have more company now = more people to flame me

theres onyl 2 reasons stopping me from riding right now, a: my kids are upstairs sleeping and unless i got a sitter the grubbermint dont really like it when you leave a 4 and 5 year old alone to go riding, b: i am still waiting for USPS to deliver the payment for my parts so J&P cycles can Ship them to me. at this rate i'll be grey and shooting powder shots before i get my bike back up and running.
