That RK Anniv. Ed. is a great looking bike! Good going.
Used to live in Mahomet in the 90's. Now I live in NW Illinois. I have no plan to put them to sleep.
Rode for the first eight days this month and only missed four in November.
Have warm gear and heated gloves. 20's does not represent a challenge. Road condition is the only limiting factor for the two wheeler's.
I got a Ural 2WD this fall and can't wait to take it out in a snow storm!

It is a sad day when it's over for the season. But as for me, rode almost 200 miles yesterday. Near 70 degree's here in Tn.. Rode to Smokey Mtn HD, those cats have it going on for a dealer. Plenty of bikes, custom upgrades and parts Gaylor.

Well I have the great year round weather and a new bike. But had a back operation in October, looking at another one in February so all I do is look at it in the garage. You just can't win sometimes......

I had to put mine up a few months ago after only being able to ride her 800 miles this summer. I bought mine this summer and had back surgery a few months after which really put a glitch in my plans of some long rides. Looking at doing some good rides here in Alaska next summer though. Want to hit Denali and Circle AK, and up the Dalton to the Arctc circle maybe. Can't wait for the summer....
