You think the city is bad come up north 2 hours. Lol about 4 1/2 feet of snow on the ground and negative 26 right now. I just had back surgery yesterday and my ass is not even thinking about going outside. More snow tomorrow.

I feel better, not much, but it helps.

Hang in there man! I had back surgery 22 years ago, the wife had back surgery in September and hasn't missed a beat, I had two ruptured discs, she had one. They must have refined the surgery over the years as she hasn't looked back, and is training to run a marathon.

If you're reading this from anywhere in the United States right now, there's a pretty good chance it's cold outside. We're in the middle of a massive freeze that could last until March, the breadth of which NASA's Terra satellite just captured in the remarkable view you see above. See all that territory blanketed in white? That's snow. It's not cloud patterns, or a representation of wind currents, just a bunch of frozen water atop even colder ground. NASA supplemented the photo with some harrowing, record-breaking numbers: BTW the cloud cover in the satellite photo is snow and not just cover.

I enjoyed living in NYC about 20 years ago, but the winters are rough.

I also lived in Nyack, Rockland County. Great town on the Hudson River!

I'm sure you know but for those who do not riding to Bear Mountain from the City is much fun.

Use Highway 9W. Also, riding to Seven Lakes Park (Harriman State Park) is awesome, too, as well as riding to West Point.

A couple of years ago I rode from SC to Lake George NY for Americade. Great roads, beautiful places and nice people. I would highly recommend riding to Americade if you haven't yet. It is always the first week of June, so weather is nice.

You get the prize.
Only about a foot of snow on the ground up here, temp a balmy +14F, light wind, a decent day for a walk.
Or better yet, my garage should approach 32F, so a great day to work on my bike.

My garage is heated but I am restricted from entering until I get the staples out of my back. 5lb weight limit until the end of march. Then I should be able to ride by May. Let the wait begin.

Through the right door, just beyond the very slow red snow thrower covered in blue tarp, the F6B is under her blankie, nursing on her Battery Tender, waiting......
