Maybe it's just a tease but it says Monday 40 degrees and partly cloudy.....
Yea Baby that what I'm talking about. It's all good. Mother Nature is just getting all this beautiful weather out of the way now to leave spring and summer all for us to ride!

Very easy,, the three year old I bungee down to the seat behind me. The 9 month old is small enough to fit in a saddle bag. I crack open the zipper so she can breathe.

I'm not doing well at all. This winter shiznit is fookin' with my mental state. I need some spring weather and I need it soon. I just got back from snow blowing the driveway again, and the stuff is so wet and heavy the machine is having a hard time with it. I sure hope we start to see a trend toward warmer weather soon.

I had the same problem last weekend Red with the wet snow. I offered MadMax96 to come over and in exchange to shoveling my driveway; I offered him a shiny red apple. MadMax96 gladly accepted the offer.

My Tahoe was throwing up so much crap in the air I had nobody dare pass me it wasn't to bad got to work on time.

In that case, you can't borrow the flame thrower.

It's not the destination, but the journey, that counts. A sport-tourer's ride between two points is seldom a straight line. He will often seek the most convoluted route possible to reach his destination.

Rain?! Friday we had steady thirty mile an hour winds and snow showers. Woke up Saturday and the snow in the drive was knee deep.
After I got it shoveled out (yeah, shoveled- no snow blower) there was still three inches of ice underneath.
Two hours later I had another couple of inches in the drive again
I'd love to just have to put up with rain, and oh yeah, it was snowing at dawn today.
