you guys need to look at the positive side of this weather...it is keeping you from putting miles on your scooters. you will have a nice low mileage cream puff come trade-in time. just got back from daytona yesterday... 3k of wear and tear on engine, tires, brakes, etc.. the oil is going to need changing soon and the bike is filthy. 11 days on the road will do that for you. supposed to be 85 here over the week-end. think i better go play golf and stop putting so many miles on my bike!!

Got a 50 degree day here, rode to work and home. 75 miles of wind therapy.

But more cold and maybe snow next week.

Spring rolled into Houston at 11:57 AM today. Aw, weather is nice today (75 degrees) and tomorrow the same, but will decline Saturday through Monday (rain). But, one door is closed and the other has opened. Feel for you all in the north and winter still wants to continue in the northeast. Glad I live in the south!
