Rode to the gym tonight. It was a short ride so cold wasn't really an issue. But 3 people commented that I must be crazy! Probably right but well worth it!

Installed a new LED tail light earlier today, of course I had to "try it out" , and rode to work. Not bad on the way in, low 20's on the way home. Been home awhile now and my fingers are returning to their normal color!

Last Sunday there was a break in the weather so I took the Scoot out for a few hours and got nearly 100 miles in.

They yesterday I did a tune up and oil change on the bike so you know I just had to go out and check it out! Only got about 25 miles in but it was great!

Suppose to be in the 60's today, and back to zero or below early next week.

Around here the temperatures go up and down like a 'yo-yo' during the winter.

But like most would agree; winter sucks.
