Yes, a balmy 4 degrees but was all worth it.
There is less stress in my life at the moment and I have lost all urge to kill things (for now anyway)

Well I was only out for about 30 minutes!
Supposed to be 12 here tomorrow but then into the tank for the rest of the week.
I was impressed with the FJR however. After her 6 month sleep. I think it cranked over for a second before coming to life. Have to love F.I.
Hopefully we can catch up sometime this summer Bearly. I decided to pass on the FJR meet down south. I may do a trip down to Arizona in early May .

uguhuugh...we got hit with TWO snowstorms last week. Saturday was literally the WORST storm I have ever witnessed! 30cm of blowing snow, sleet and ice pellets. 100km/h gusts of wind! Cars stuck all over the place! Even my Subaru got stuck!
We're never gonna ride around here

Arrgh .... bike is apart and I am still waiting for the postie to deliver my shim kit. Once an item hits Canada, it takes another 10 days for delivery. Sigh ... relax .... breathe .... go lay on the couch ... ok, I will.

First ride of the year here yesterday, and second ride today
Man did I miss it. I took the new-to-me VFR out for its first two romps and had a blast. It was +12 today last time I checked...might have even gotten warmer than that.
