Aaarrrrggghhh!!!! They salted the roads again!!!

What a long and agonizing winter! I Should have taken advantage of the sunny 40degree afternoon we had this week. Then I would have had to heat the garage up and spend an hour making sure the salt residue didn’t have time to marr the finishes of my Roadster. It sure will be sweet when I can finally get some seat time in!

Was 62 here yesterday and we got snow last night so I know how you feel...I live in the country so it's a salt/cinder mix, nasty and unsafe to ride on.

Around here they gravel the roads when it snows or is icy, stupidist thing to do and so dangerous for motorcycles. This winter sucks so bad. I do see monday is 70 degrees and sunny. Then back to rain forever. I think I’m feeling ill, cough cough

This has been the most brutal winter I can remember. Four Nor'Easters in a row in March. One per week too many. It snowed last night, a couple inches, and even tough it won't stay long,it's still hard on the head to see it snowing. Come on spring.

I think it's the fault of the weather forecasters. They predict foul weather, we get it.

Haven't stopped with the salt yet here, last ride was... November? Haven't had a warm up and rinse yet. Couple years ago I was ago to get at least one or two rides on the worst months of that year. Snow was too deep for my Harley on some of them, though, used a Russian thing, does that count?
