Default Wow!! Great Weather!!

We've had great weather here in So. Cal in the last 2 days!! 80+ degrees both days and we put over 200 miles on the RK this weekend just riding local...no jackets, chaps, or much of anything else. Not bragging but loving the freakishly warm weather right now!!

I was happy with my 61 degree weather today. I took a nice 70 mile trip today for the first time in several weeks. We have had 30 to 40 degree highs for the past few weeks. Very unusual for the south.
I've got a call in for Al Gore to find out what the hell is going on. I kinda like that global warming ****, just wondering what happend with it. LOL

Had a our Polar bear rund today, but it was hi 70's. Rode up to Idyllwilde. Just perfect. Just a little bit of sand from the snow a few weeks back. So Cal is a great place.

Seasonably wet in Oregon. Let's say I've had the opportunity to work on the bike. Wish this rain would stop so I could get some decent riding in.

Nice in Northern California as well. I had a nice ride in the Santa Cruz mountains and along the coast yesterday. Nice change from the cold rainy weather we've had in recent weeks.
