Cool The down side to Spring...

Rode yesterday and my friggin allergies are BLOWING up!

Being in Central Cali, the pollen here is insane and with all the agriculture (and everything blooming), having a stuffy nose is the norm around here.

Good thing we can ride all year here though.

Sounds good! And yes, I will gladly put up with all the allergies in order to ride all season.

One true benefit to ND. No alergies all winter since everything is frozen solid. Still I can take a pill to fix alergies. No pill is gonna melt all this cursed ice.

Trees are coming out here in FL and the pollen makes me cough like crazy. Everyone thinks I have a cold but that's not it.
