Default Spring is here!

Well almost, another day to go but close enough! We've had a brutal winter for snow and can't wait to get out riding again.

Yup, was 73 in Milwaukee the other day. Got my first T shirt ride of the year in!

This is going to be an awesome summer for me, 3 weeks a vacation,,,,, Going to the Blue Ridge, Sturgis the week before Sturgis. Maybe check out North Cal and Oregon for a week.

I'm up the road in Hanover. I still haven't gotten out yet because of all the salt that's still on the road. I'm hoping for another good rain soon to wash it away. Can't wait for that first ride and to start taking the bike to work again.

Let's hookup for a ride sometime.

Got out for the first time yesterday afternoon. After checking the oil, tires and forks, the bike fired right up just as if it had been running yesterday, in stead of sitting there since the end of November.

Our projected high temp for tomorrow, the first day of Spring, is only 43F.
