Rained up here in MI today. 45 is just too warm to not ride so wet weather gear it was. Had a blast and it washed the bike off a bit of some of the hard to reach spots where salt gets.

I know that the average temps for your area should be around 50 this time of year, but Sunday looks to be a balmy 33 degrees. With all of the Global Warming going on you should be happy it isn't 22 degrees.

I went out Tues afternoon for a little ride. Temp was around 40 with high winds more.like low 30's. Tad cold.but not near as much sand as I anticipated. Will wait for some rain to go for any longer rides but still nice to get out. Even better when bike popped right off as soon as I hit starter button.

This.

I've been going out most evenings and just sitting on it.. occasionally starting it up. This winter is the worst.

You ain't kiddin'! I managed a ride last weekend when the temps were in the lower 50's - it was a great ride, but the next morning it was 21ºF...WTF!! Between the $hit ton of snow and cold temps we got this year, this winter really blows!! And today's the first day of spring so I hope this crappy climate gets the memo!

Spring is in the air!

You said a mouthful. Lots of us are right there with you. Maybe in another month the weather will turn. Seems like winter is lasting longer and longer every year. I need to move to a warmer climate.
