Don't know how you guys do it...down here in Mississippi we've had over a week where it has been in the teens to 20's. Today it's supposed to touch 40*, but with Rain!

I don't like it.

Having spent so much of my life in warmer climates...SoCal, South America (Amazon basin), Las Vegas, Maui & the South, I just don't think my body wants to adjust to cold for any lengths of time...bones start aching where they were broken or have metal. lol

San Diego has great weather, but the traffic in most parts of SoCal really takes away from it being a great riding locale...although there is lane splitting out there.

The crazy cold (for us) has broken...it's 45 now and tomorrow is in the 50's and then a couple of days in the 60's!

The ride in this morning was wet and foggy...BUT, it was 42*....WAY better than 22 or 12* like the weather we've been having.


Almost felt like summer, relatively speaking.
