    If it's getting even that some of you guys want, just wait until July or August and start posting how enjoyable your riding is under 98F. If you'll remember, Steve 0080 reverts to night riding in the summertime due to daytime heat and humidity . As far as Phantom is concerned, he is always cool in his T-Rex

    Being a Floridian, originally from Connecticut, I kind of agree with you. We should have a temporary ban. I know I'm not alone on this, but we would rather spend more time riding than sitting around posting about it... Just kidding with ya, love this forum.

    You guys are correct, July and August are brutally hot for motorcycle riding.
    Even the T-rex engine heat becomes a bit unbearable. Unlike Steve, I sleep at night.
    Much more enjoyable to be on a jet ski or a pontoon boat during those months.




    Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.

    The wood was split, Florida oak, & the fire was not for show.

    Now we do get snakes in the pool.

    Not poisonous but he liked my pool anyways.

    It has snowed here.

    Florida, just a few years from being submerged by, I hate to say it, climate change?

    In Florida, ATGATT means a speedo, flip flops, and do-rag while riding.

    BTW.... there is no such thing as weather "too hot to ride in".
    My Florida VRCC buddies call me "the lizard" for my ability to ride in what they call hot weather.

    Wussies.

    I haven't ridden Arkansas yet.
    You need to! Arkansas, being my neighbor, is a destination for those unplanned week end getaways.

    You could go ahead and ban those Floridian folks. But nuthin can be finer than to be in S Caroliner in the winter time. Yea we ride all year too.
