Default Gorgeous in SW Missouri

Nothing but sun and almost 60 in SW Missouri yesterday. Friend and I put on a couple hundred miles on some of our favorite twisty roads through the Ozarks hills. Maybe I've been cooped up too long, but with the weather so nice and the bike running and handling great, I just couldn't wipe the smile off my face.

Love these mid-winter bonus days.

Temps got close to 50 near Chicago. Roads are covered in salt and massive winds of 30 mph. Temps are dropping tonight to under zero. Thanks for rubbing it in.

Moved to N. Texas last year from KC. I am digging on the winter down here. Yes, it gets cold down here, but not like up North AND, NO salt!

Was 68 yesterday, my butt was on the scooter.
