Default Cabin Fever

Just posted with a different title and was immediately moved to off-topic. I guess the Title "500th Post" does sound rather "off Topic".

Anyhow - in light of some rather puerile posts of late I do hope this cabin fever comes to its inevitable end sooner than later.

part of original post:


Seems to me we all have cabin fever right around this time of year. I can hardly wait until things start to warm up and everyone gets back out on the road. Right now I guess we're lucky out here on the West coast. Hope things get better soon for everyone else.

Dave

Nope - I posted it at exactly the same time another post was being locked - so the admin was on the board. It was moved within 30 seconds of my posting. I don't really care but of course this is where we are all hanging so to speak. It just seems inconsistent. Some of the threads we've been privy to of late have absolutely nothing to do with riding or bikes. At least this one does (my opinion).

Default Cabin fever pretty well sums it up

I can't believe how good it feels to just get out on the bike for a couple of hours maybe once or twice a month. I know it's a terrible thing to want time to go by faster but until global warming kicks in......................
