    Scott, you are dedicated! It was 8 degrees f when I got up in Spokane this AM. There will be no riding for me until March at the earliest...

      The only riding I’m doing is in the mountains on my skis. It’s even to cold for that today, it was minus 33C at my local mountain at 8am this morning

        50deg and raining today. No riding for me. Last weekend we did a small ride, it was mid 50's but sunny.
        I hate this time of year. Can't wait til springtime.

          Good for you Scott. Mid 40's, windy and spotty rain here.
          I have neither the time,or the inclination, to explain myself to a man, who rises and sleep under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner, in which I provide it. I'd rather you just say 'thank you' and go on your way.

            They just did the "Elefantentreffen" : January 27..29. It is a German motorcycle meeting in a forest in the middle of the winter:



            I never attended it... and I will never do.

                  It's 20 degrees here in Oklahoma with about 3" of ice on the ground. Black Betty isn't going anywhere for a while

                    You guys that ride in snow and 20 degree weather, props to you. Here in SoCal we don't get that kind of weather which suits my fair weather riding preference just fine.

                              I was out last Sunday for about 210 miles NW of Houston TX.

                              High of 71F & sunny.

                              My first ride with new tires, new brake pads, & new helmet, boots, & jacket.

                              A friend was supposed to join on his KTM but backed out to spend time with his step-son - so I just tooled around solo.

                              Went to one of my favorite BBQ places in College Station but the line was out the door.

                              Went instead to a biker joint out in the country and it was packed, too. I waited 30 minutes for a burger & fries and was just glad to eat.
