Well, here in San Diego we rode in T-shirts and vest last weekend along the coast....You guys wouldn't like it here!
Raining this morning but it cleared up to be a nice day.....like a high of 55F today with frost warnings for tonight, local mountains, 45 minutes from the coast heading East on Interstate 8 was closed due to snow and ice from the storm that came through last night.
I grew up in Ohio, folks moved to San Diego in the early 70's and I could never move back, that cold would probably kill me!

I can't wait! I only got in 60 riding days since Nov. 1st for over 7,300 miles. When it gets warm I will then do some serious riding. If it was 20 or more and the roads were clear I was out. I would occasionally come across other winter riders.
Never understood the mentality of putting a bike away when it is no challenge to ride in the twenties. Heated gloves and a snow suit just like the snowmobile folks. I guess some are not as passionate riders as they like to think.
Headed to the haul roads, Laughlin, Sturgis and beyond.

Got nothing to prove riding in the cold. It just ain't fun. Plus, no scenery to speak of (if you catch my drift)
