Be careful Skywalker....looking that far into the forecast may prove to be disappointing

But if March 2nd is nice, I might pull the cover off the old King and hit the pavement!

I'm not that far from Tampa........about 2 hours south of you. Did not know the weather there was that bad enough to keep ya from riding.
I've been going out riding just about everyday now. Just came back from a short ride to Punta Gorda, 100 miles round trip and had no weather issues at all.

Glad to see that you'll be riding on 3/2 regardless. Be safe and enjoy. Counting on you coming back with a smile that's bigger than the one you have on your avatar......if that's even possible because that's one big genuine smile ya got there Eve.

I'm over near goshen.

WOW, EVE! Used to have a house in Goshen; inherited it when I was a young'un!

If you are ever in the town of Goshen, go check out Dickey's first digs; maybe take a pic & post it so I can see what it looks like now!

97 Montgomery St. Between Church & Erie. Here's what it looked like when I owned it.

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.

It's not that we aren't as passionate as you are. Maybe it's because there is a layer of salt on the
roads that we don't want all over our bikes. Just a guess

But by the sounds of it you are pretty amazing......

I do agree with not wanting any salt on my bike.
Salt is in the air pretty much 24x7 365 here in Fla. because we have the Atlantic on one side(East Coast) and the Gulf of Mexico on the other(West Coast).

Me pretty amazing? It must be just a rumor
