What a great day for a ride. Took a short ride today (about 125 miles). Could'nt ask for a nicer February 1st with the temp. at about 71 :cool:. Hope some of you folks   around got the chance to ride as well.

At least 100 miles a day. Sometimes more when I have things I have to do like today it will be closer to 250. One of the benefits of living 45 miles from work! On the other hand 34 degrees this morning. So the afternoon had better be warm!

66 degrees here today and the GW is down with a clutch hyd leak. So another project got worked on instead. Tomorrow is MD day so the good weather will probably be gone by the time I get to work on the clutch.

Yeah, yeah. Just rub it in. Been far below freezing point for more than two months here now, guess it will last until mid or late april.

On the other hand - we can go skiing.:?

Below freezing at night and in the low 50's today here.  Will take a short jaunt to the store later before the temp goes back down below freezing.  Just have to watch for spots that are always in shadow as that is where the ice stays.

Picked my bike up at the shop Tuesday. Put 68 miles on it after it was worked on. Bike was running really hot. Yesterday returned the bike to the shop. Temps in the 50's Tuesday and low 40's yesterday. Not bad weather to ride in if you dress for it.
