Moose- we can find something that will work for ya'. I delivered a Yamaha Rhino to a customer in Interlachen this afternoon. They were off CR 315, which actually has curves and elevation- both of which are extremely rare in this state. Stop in and ask for Peter- I'm the Customer Service Manager, so I can authorize a BadWeB discount.
PS- I won't be there Saturday... the XB12R and I will be enjoying JenningsGP. |

I'm proud to say I rode in Gainesville today... I won't mention I grew up playing in the snow though... Should we start a new forum "BadweatherbikersexceptforMoosestang.com"?  |

It was 34 in Brandon when I left the house this morning- cooler than yesterday. Fingers were a little numb and non-functional by the time I got to work, but overall not too bad. |

It was 37 when I left for work this morning. I put an extra layer on and rode the bike in to work. Wore a T-shirt, dress shirt, Sweater and Jacket. Work a pair of dress pants and my boots. Helmet kept my head nice and toastie. Oh, and gloves. I would not have made it without the gloves.

I am not a bad weather rider, never claimed to be. I will ride when it's cold, but when it's so cold I could possibly lose a finger, then no thanks.
I live off of cr 315. There are a few curves and hills between hwy 20 and hwy 100. |

You southern guys know nothing of the cold. Come to Minnesota on some of our -25 degree days...now that's cold!
My bike has been winterized and stored. It's not biking season anymore, it's snowboarding season! :-D (try that in FL!) |

It will be 27 degrees when I pull out at 5:00 tomorrow morning and turn south. At 8:00 when I turn left it is supposed to be 28 degrees. At 11;00 when I turn right it should be a balmy 32. I'll stop around 12:00 or 1:00 where it should be 35. Should be 370 mi. from where I left. A couple hours later I'll head North 50 mi. to where I'll spend the night. I should just dodge the snow, I hope. It's snowing up here but the snow from earlier melted. First trip on two wheels of any distance I've been on in long time.  |

Arhh, My drive is ice. Neighborhood streets aren't much better. Looks like I'm going to be driving the cage for a while. Guys at work blame me for the motorcycle barricades still being up in the handicapped parking area past Thanksgiving. ( during the summer some of the handicapped area becomes motorcycle parking with concrete barricades to keep the cages out ) Guys kept making fun of me for riding in the cold, rain, and snow. One brother tried to put up for me, and I just told him not to worry about it, I said they will never understand why a dog puts his head out the window in a car. He smiled. I'll have to get a pic of him on my bike, he rides one of the short hogs cause he has to. He can't tip toe my xt. Man, I want to ride! |

I rode in today. It was 48 when I left the house. I had a good jacket and gloves on so it wasn't bad at all. I swear I don't know how you northern guys do it. When it gets below 40, I have to bundle up so much I look like the Michelon man with a helmet on. |

Yeah... its supposed to warm up to the mid 70's today with only a slight chance of rain. I may go out and get some french fries just for the excuse of getting out and riding for a few minutes. |

15 deg. when I left the house at 7:30 this morning. When I got to work at 8:00 there was a guy across the street warming up his Versys to go to work. Even if the X1 was running right now I wouldn't venture out in this. Where's all this global warming I keep hearing about? |

It was 38 when I left the house, leather jacket, helmet, gloves and boots. Luckily my ride is only 15 min. Everything was good except the dingleberries. Jeans just aren't thick enough lol. |
