I live in Northern Illinois and I must say this weather pattern we've been having this year has got me in a real funk. Low 40's when I woke up today and has been in the mid 60's for high temps??? Come on it's June let's see some consistant 75 - 80 days.

 

I hear ya brother! I wore my winter coat to my son's baseball game last night, and I still froze my @ss off. I'm think some Gerbings might be needed for his next game.

 

I'm with you too.
Wore thermal's on my ride into work this morning!
It's fricken June!!!!

 

HA...Next thing you know is it will be friggin HOT and it will give ya all something else to complain about!!!!!....Dont forget guys FREEDOM RUN in a few weeks!!!!! Always a good run and NOT lining up in Joliet this year!!!!

 

When it's this cold in June, anybody has the right to complain. I don't do the Freedom run too many drinkers. I usually ride out there a couple times during the year alone because I do support our Millitary.

 

Each to his own my friend!!!! .... Just passing on some info!!!

 

Nah...You will never hear me complain it's to hot. Being hot doesn't really bother me. I'm just sayin this season has been weird. Normally I open the swimming hole the second week of May which I did, and the kids are usually swimming by the third week of May. Chit they haven't even asked to go swimming yet. So much for global warming I guess...or is this the effects of... Anyway hoping for some more stable warmer weather. I'm tired of gearing up for the cold in the AM and packin it all away on the ride home in the PM.

 

The current weather patterns are definitely bizzare! Normally in CO, we have great weather by late May. So far, we've had 200% more rain than I have seen in a bunch of years and it seems like every weekend, when 'normally' it would sunny and perfect for riding, it ends up being cloudy and then raining.

Oh well, I'm still riding whenever possible. 10-1/2 weeks of riding the new bike and 4900 miles on the odometer...

 

I hear ya...We've had are share of rain also, but man the temps really suck! Normally we should be in the mid to upper 70's by now and we've only been in the mid to upper 60's most of the time with some mid 70's sprinkled in here and there.

 

Could be worse. Year and 1 week ago to the day stranded in Belgrade Mt. waiting for the snow plows to clear off I90 between Bozeman and Butte.Just came back from Nevada,california,ore,Idaho.95 in Vegas,104 in Barstow.Never had nothing more than a t-shirt on for 9 days.Summer is coming!
