I can not EVEN comprehend having too, "cover a bike up for the WINTER". That just does not compute for this old Texas Redneck! SORRY for you guys.

18 degrees and snowing. I look forward to some global warming, or what I like to call spring.

-3 as we speak, -23 with the wind chill. Gotta go to work later this evening and haul snow for a local municipality. Did the same last night. It was brrrrrrrrrrrisk, to say the least.

Our house backs up to a retention pond. I noticed that there's snow dunes on it. I never saw that before.

I pity you poor souls who have warm weather year round.

Weather turned cooler today in Pensacola. Same weather as Baton Rouge. ICLICK has the forecast correct down here. On my way to Canton, Ohio where I am sure it will be a little cooler as well. The RKC is tucked away with a battery tender.

"1st Day of Winter" was awesome here, in the 70's: Got in several hundred miles of great riding in this weekend, mowed the lawn, and washed the trucks. Hard to get in the Christmas spirit though....
