    There's a winter motorcycle "show" near you I think...Last year it was at the Curtiss Museum...not sure where it is this year. Vintage bikes...Wintercycle Therapy it's called.
    That's right Rick...its in Hammondsport at the south end of Keuka lake, a cool place...motorcycles and planes worth seeing.

    FIRST TIME EVER!!!!

    Me and one of the grandkids rode about 80 miles XMas day. I hit the info button and the temp registered 81 degrees. The strange thing wasw that I ended up having to dodge a 3 foot brown snake on one of the backroads.

    Strange enough to be riding in 81 degree weather on the 25th, but stranger to be ducking snakes!!!!!

    Ah that does suck.

    Salt is a show stopper for me as well. We still have clear roads down here for the time being.. on borrowed time regarding that though.
