Default Freakin Cold!!!

Just spewin off a bit but, all I want is a break in the weather. It's freakin -35c in the sun today. For my friends in the south thats around -31,-32f I think. I don't have a heated garage, so when it's freezin outside it's freezin inside!!! Hows a guy supposed to work on his bike when it will not warm up!!! I'm movin south, this sucks! Hope all my other freezin friends up here are having better luck. Thanks for the rant!!

It has been -20 for some time. Finally got above freezing and now we have a raging blizzard going. Got at least a foot of snow and still coming down. Cheer up spring is not that far away now, few more weeks and will all see a difference.

You bet it is cold. Looks like it will stay that way for a while yet. Hang in there - warm weather is only 4 months away!

This morning it hit -40 F with the windchill. I dislike it in January... but I've had more than enough. This winter has been brutal.

Just make sure you move far enough to get away from all of it. I keep thinking its going to turn the corner and then its below zero again. Last year I was riding at the start of April so I hope it lets up to let me do that again.

20 years ago we were in Texas, said I couldn't stand the heat any more. Moved to Colorado. Couple weeks back we had a couple of mornings at -17F. Now I'm getting less and less tolerant of the cold.
