It will be a few more weeks before most of us here in Michigan can ride.
We sometimes get snow up into mid-April so it doesn't pay t get in a rush.

I usually don't move my "stuff" around to where I can get the bike on the garage floor until after we get a couple of good rains to wash the salt off of the roads.

F* that! In SE Michigan we just got some decent rain. I'm going to putt around on Saturday.

I missed riding in February for the first time in 3 years, that was the first month I've missed riding in Michigan in 3 years.

I ride when I can, but right now there's snow on the ground, salt everywhere, and more snow coming.

I'm with you Keith. I'm planning to ride over to Skippers and hang with GasMan and him on Saturday as they get Skipper's RG put back together and then out to the Clem for the bike show...

Long range forecast for the Eastern half of the USA is well below temperatures, upper 20's to upper 30's for the highs, and cold night time temperatures, with below normal precipitation.
So it's going to be in the upper 20's to 30's at least through the end of the month.
Lets hope April is better for riding weather.
Sorry folks about the doom and gloom forecast, just kinda the way it is!!!
