Warm weather turd reporting in...

Picked up my bike from the shop today (gear drive cams), and rode it 60 miles home. Temp around 45. I'd be riding it right now, but my wife is working and I'm stuck home with the kids.

Going riding tomorrow, though, if it makes you feel any better.

I rodeabout 65-70 miles today.Stopped by whileI was out and ate some wings and drank a couple cold beers. It's been kinda chilly during the week, but got up to about 61 today. We are pretty lucky here where we can ride almost year round for the most part. I'm still ready for spring!!
