Here in Chicago it just doesn't stop. It was finally the warmest it has been in a long time today (44) but pouring down rain and now it is turning to a wintery mix.

Brother, I know EXACTLY how you feel! I'm climbing the friggin' WALLS here waiting for the weather to clear up... hopefully, just a few more weeks, and I'll be back in the wind!

Cheers!

I'd like to contribute something meaningful here, but I don't have time. Gotta go out and give my bike a once over for my ride to Prescott, AZtomorrow to hang with the inlaws. I'll probably be stuck riding the twisty and scenic route through Jerome and over Mingus Mountain.

I don't know 'bout you guys, but I'm sufferin' from P.M.S. - "Parked Motorcycle Syndrome" I need to get my bike out on the road, but it's still too icy and salty. Maybe I should put a set of rollers in the building and ride on those?....See ya in the wind. Ride safe everyone. Jr.
Hmmm.. you just gave me an idea on a new business. There are a lot of old factory buildings around. How about converting a large one into an indoor riding area, where bikers can come in and practice their slow riding skills. Keep everybody sharp for when their riding season comes back.

Riding season never ends here in NC. But today, the ride is warm and DRY in the garage. It's raining so hard here I saw a frog with a cork in his butt to keep the water out!![:@]

My friend just bought a Vrod and we went on a short 100 mile ride. He was wearing his jacket and asked if I was cold. I just have my tshirt on with long sleeve long john shirt underneath. It was about 70 today.

I love Texas!

Lloyd...I like you Lloyd

Oh well, guess this means I have a couple more weeks to get the bike re-assembled before it actually gets nice over here.

Wolf, I hate winter
