    winter weather sucks

    Here in most parts of Idaho winter is boring and cold....First snow of 6 inches came about Nov 20... followed by temps between 32 and 0 F....can count days on one hand since then that temp has reached 40 F

    Too cold to go to garage to put on new stuff, too cold to mount up anything with double sided tape..... just have to sit and wait for at least another month....rather depressing...

    Will get on a plane a week from tomorrow to visit the big island of Hawaii for two weeks.....can't happen soon enough for me...

    Yep, we've had a cold month in North Texas but we've had 2 nice days in a row & one more coming tomorrow. Had a beautiful short ride yesterday & will do it again tomorrow. Sorry guys but I gotta get it while I can. Glad I don't have to sit on mine naked.

    If I was gonna try that naked thing I would have to get one of those sheepskin seat covers for the boys. Just sayin.

    45 this morning going to 60 so I had to ride to work today. I am building my workshop now and have about 20% of the insulation in.

    The only one allowed to sit naked on my bikes is my wife (NO opas, I will not post pictures) .....

    Man your lucky with the weather...It is 26 degrees here and snowing this morning....If it were 45 + degrees here, I would sit on my bike naked, and at 75 years old it would not be a pretty site!!!....Ride safe my friend....

    .. all the guys riding in good weather while we freeze up here in Michigan need to remember, our bikes will last much longer, as we hibernate them for 5 months each winter!!!!

    Having lived in Arizona, I noticed it just makes people too nervous when you wear a side arm into a 7-11.

    seen these too..just not digging having something rubbing on the faster black paint...I normally carry around 4-5 o'clock but occasionally my wife leaves her bike parked and rides pylon...not a real comfortable carry at that point...
