That's OK. Life goes on in the cold. It is nice sitting in a hot tub when the sun is up, and it is dead still out, and 7° doesn't feel that cold with no wind.
I used to look forward to skiing, but now that we have an empty nest, I think I will take up ice skating.
Not being able to ride makes you cherish riding season, and not take any day over 40° for granted.

I hope you got a good one in because it's coming your way.

Low 30's all weekend in middle Tennessee, 5 inches of rain the last two days, ice predicted tonight and all of that headed to you.
Winter seems terribly early this year.

After 5 inches of new snow Wednesday it has really turned cold. Woke up to minus 19 with a 15 mph NW wind. Yeppers, that is minus 30 with wind chill. Jealous of you SOB's that have warm enough weather to ride in.

Seven degrees here, (-14 for you Canadians). Snow and ice covered roads. Only way I am riding is in my dreams.

I'm up on the lift doing my seasonal routine . I detail the bike once a year and check all the things I ignore all year. Ie loose nuts n bolts....anything cracked, bent, or whatever.

Gives me something to do all winter before I go bonkers.
