Default Riding today!!

Finally some nice weather around here. Was able to get some riding in today and it sure was nice. Sound of the bike on the road sure is good to hear after months of looking at her in the garage. Sounds of the stereo on the highway also a nice treat, thanks to firecap. I hope it only gets better from here cause I'm dying to get out some more. Ride safe and often.

Get your riding in now, while you can...because (hate to say this) there is bad weather heading your direction.

I got in a couple of afternoon rides on Thursday and Friday to make up for the lack of potential for Saturday/Sunday rides this weekend.

Good to hear!

Winter is not wanting to let go around here yet, so I only have about 40 miles in so far this year...

I know the feeling!!! Got out for the first time this year, last Thursday. Only around 60 miles, but all was good for a couple of hours. First ride since late October, last year. Happens every year, first time out, I remember just how much I really enjoy riding.

Today, it's snowing and the weather is awful!!! Based on the forecast, don't think that I'll be riding again anytime real soon! Local road crews will probably be salting again.

For all weather challenged riders, enjoy your first ride of the year and be safe!!!!

I don't know how you guys can hold out that long. I get so itchy just having to wait longer than a week to ride the bike. It sure is nice to be able to ride here in the winter. It can get down to the 30's in the morning on the way to work but that's about it. Just about time to ride home now! 68 and sunny Hope you guys are having a blast! Ride safe.
