Default Couldn't wait any more

Temps in the 50s. Uncovered the bike, checked it over and off we went. Kinda weird riding with snow in the ditches but it was a fun 80 miles through the countryside.

Great! The 50s are great for riding...engine stays cool and it's not freezing or hot to me.

I thought about it but there's too much water, dirt, and salt on the road. I should be back in the saddle in a week or two.

Mine is stored in the shed with mud surrounding it, so it would be a mess to get it out, for it and the yard.
