Default Going Crazy Already!

I have plans for Myrtle Beach BW and then into mountains in May but that is to far away for me. It has been to cold for me to ride here in Charlotte for a week and I'm already having withdrawls. I really like doing overnight trips and can't wait until the weather is better to be able to put 600+ miles on in a weekend. We need to get some rides going and put them on the calander so I have something to look forward to!

Anyone else having withdrawls? I don't know how I used to make it through when I lived in Michigan! Of course I didn't have my Harley then so riding wasn't quite as much fun

Yep, me to SMUNDORF. I live a little south in Lancaster, SC and yesturday was snow and rain and now it's about 22 degrees. This just isn't cutting it. My husband was actually on the internet looking at South Florida reality. We still have a few months to go before spring. I'm seriously going through some withdrawls. I keep hitting the weather.com to check to see what the next 10 days will be just in case it's warm enough to ride. I figure I can bundle up, and ride slow so maybe it won't be so cold.

I had'nt been on my bike for almost 2 weeks but today I bit the bullet and wrapped up and rode abut 50 miles. 28 degrees when I left and 32 when I got back. I was cold to say the least. But it was a good cold for sure. Awful chilly for central NC midday. Looks like frezzing rain may be possible tomorrow. That SUX!!!!!!!!

No withdrawls here, I ride every day no matter
what the weather is. I also ride most every
weekend some where. Last weekend the wife
and I rode our Wing down to Florida for about
1,200 miles round trip!
