    I believe it is. From there no definite planned route of travel has been laid out to date. My vote is to head south down SR-209 through the park to a warmer climate and a donut.

    But be forewarned, Yesterday I lost power for 13 hours at the house and was living off the generator in 70 mph winds.
    Tomorrow's forecast is for a beautiful sunny day with daytime high temps in the mid to lower 30's. Unfortunately, the night time temperature will be a tad cooler around 5 degrees is the forecast. Please remind me to wash my long Johns!

    The good news is, this past Tuesday I got out of bed and took a nice leisurely ride in temps in the mid 60's. Go figure!!

    It's springtime in the Poconos!!

    According to the weather people...and I use that term loosely...end of March temps should be warmer than normal. Now...we haven't mentioned the "R" word...

    Yes, But you do have a reputation for being an environmentalist and washing your bike on the move usually on the interstates!

    Good news, it only went down to 9 last night. Bad news, it's supposed to go lower tonight!
    Good news, there is supposed to be a warm up this week, and as stated above, the long range forecast is for above normal temps for the rest of the month.

    Please keep your tidiness tendencies to weekday use only.

    Let's just hope it warms up a bit....I won't mention the other word. Would like to ride in the 50's at least!

    20 days away and they are predicting single digit temps again for this weekend and S***! Got permission from the CEO to run with you guys, though it's about a 300 mile trip. It will be a good ice breaker / spring tune up ride for my Rolling Thunder trek. But man, single digits.

    The good thing is that it's still three weekends away. I'm not riding in 40 degree temps for 4 hours each way. I'm hoping for mid 50's at least. March is a little ambitious for this ride, but I'm all for it. I have a goal of 15,000 miles this year with no long trips planned. I'm less than 1,000 in since January.
