Heat wave today in Chicago today, it is going to reach freezing. Last Friday the HIGH was +1 and it was only over 0 for 20 minutes. I'm moving to the Keys when I retire, just don't tell the OL.

Bite me palm fram

I wish it would hit 40 here. Would feel tropical at this point.

I hope you've been for a ride in the cold as you say, so you can kinda relate
to our hell that lasts for more than a week (3 months)

Ohh, and if the sun is out 2 days in a row it's a good week

No you can,
I was venting having bought a new ride recently and winter kicked in full time up
here really sucks. I'm litterly counting the seconds to minutes to hours to days
even weeks to the time I can ride and be free once again.
If I could I'd move the hell outta here but my kid keeps me here 7yr old.

So get out and ride for us the suffering bastards of the north and enjoy

LOL! That is pretty much true! I would say 50 is more like my threshold because it usually doesnt last longer than 4-5 hours. Quite close to the equator, warms up fast.
Should I winterize my bike? I dont think its ever sat for more than a week
