I'm known to make a bit of noise, complaining about the winter weather of my locale.
So it seems mandatory that I pipe up & say Boo-Yaa!

It even got beyond tolerable and hit a reported 64 degrees in by the airport.

Hit about 55 in Green Bay yesterday. Took the S1W out for an abbreviated ride. I had a technical problem about 1 1/2 hours into riding. My newly installed rear sets are still being a pain in the a@@. The rear brake locked on me (luckily in town and at low speeds). I was able to open the bleeder valve and alleviate the pressure. Made it home with front brakes.

Oh yeah....it's snowing like crazy this morning

We went up on Sunday to ride the mountains.
It was about 30o in the morning when we left out.
By the time we got to TWO it was about 40.
By the end of the day it got to about 70.
What a day, we rode well over 200 miles.
Can't wait for next weekend!

was able to open the garage door while spinning wrenches on This Old Buell -- not as good as riding, but pretty darned nice!

Logged a meager 20 miles in-between work and family obligations. It felt great to start her up and ride a bit.

I'm ordering my Widder Lectric System 2 vest in a few minutes. That should get me out on the road a lot more this year during the early and late parts of the season. Particularly when riding next to Lake Michigan for the 34 miles to work, where it can be cold even on a warm day everywhere else!

Weather here in SE Texas is warm enough. But if it rains much more I'm going to need SCUBA gear to ride.................

Glitch...what's that green stuff in the pic...grass? I've almost forgotten what it looks like. Still piles and piles of white snow everywhere.

Snow sucks (at least for riding)...

I believe it is what you say, grass.
That's about all that's green though.
It was snowing up there on Tuesday, and they salted my favorite, Wolf Pen Gap, so we didn't even ride that way.
That is up 60 a few miles north of TWO.
Scroll down about half way to the "upcoming events" if you're wondering where I'll be weekend after next.
And yes snow sucks out loud, that's one reason I moved South.
