Sounds like you're ready!

All the ice just finished melting here yesterday...we're way further south!

Here's hoping you're able to get out soon!

It is Mid 80s here in South-Western Arizona, and a bit breezy. We will be leaving here for the Phoenix area and Spring Training in Goodyear, Az. Couple of days there then onward to Sedona, kind of the long way home.

Got almost 100 pix on the GoPro now, just a pain to reduce the size and download on the road. We will be on Samsung tablets for the next week or so. When we get home I'll do a YouTube slide show. Gotta keep records so the Grandkids can brag about Mimi and Papa the bikers

In the 80's here is sunny South Carolina a couple of days this week. Back to the 40's tomorrow with rain. WTF? Anyway, got out to Daytona last week and a round trip total of 939 miles. Last day was 48* and running about 80 to get home. I put on every piece of clothing I had and was still cool. Ist day of spring is on us and hopefully riding weather.

You guys ride safe

This year I bought myself a Christmas present ... heated jacket liner, heated gloves, and heated socks ... along with fleece lined chaps. Warm at 20 ... but not more than an hour.

When every direction you travel more than 100 miles, some closer, gets you to mountains, you have to be prepared ... never had enough room for heated gear till I got the Tri.

I got myself a heated jacket liner, and heated gloves for Christmas also. I did a permanent temperature controller in the dash. Love them. Must have here in CO.

Looks like spring will be a ways off around here. Last week it was in the high 40's some rain snow was melting looking good. Of course still have 3' piles of snow at the end of the drive way and can't see the grass anywhere yet. Then yesterday the temps went into the low 30's and the wind was gusting at 55 mph, trees down power outages all over the place. Today temps are in the teen's with 18 mph wind. Great news it is going to snow tomorrow 2"-5" forecast-ed. Oh Well life goes on.

Those of you that can get out and ride have a great time and try and not laugh at us too much! We will get there some time?
