Default I hate winter

All of our snow was gone and flooding was eminent....now we have another 12 inches on the ground with about 6-8 more to come. Will be another 2-3 weeks now before riding season can continue.

LMAO... just use the time to customize your ride even more, I mean we all hate to mod and have days off the bike on those nice days, so use the "winter" what ever that is to do your mods and DON'T lose out on riding days

problem solved
