We're getting our coldest weather of the season this week. Highs won't get out of the 40s for the most part.

I'm keeping my azz at home.

BRRRRRRRRR!!

Here in the beautiful SE TN I usually ride pretty much year round.
Not this year.6 ins. of snow on Christmas Day & 8 ins.yesterday.
Plus we've had a lot of below normal temps.I'm about to go nuts.
I don't know how you snow belt guys do it.

Yea that's here too. Unbelievable cold, tons of snow, would not make it out onto my street without laying her down. I want to ride in the worst way, but it just ain't happening. I'm hoping for late March but it will likely be mid April and then there will be plenty of sand on the streets to look out for.
