Tim: you win the justifiable cabin fever award. Congratulations! But just smile and keep thinking about how much you will enjoy riding in August when it's too hot for those suckers in Arizona to ride. Gosh, makes me feel sorry for them every year!

The snowline is 2500' and we're at 2100'. So, it's wet here, but there's snow on the mountains except for Red Mountain. It's pretty.

You live there on purpose, or is this some evil punishment for past wrongs? With what you see out the window, looks like a two or three month riding season.
Hey, I know! Don't they make a conversion kit so you can outfit your bike like a snowmobile? Instead of road time, you could get snow time!

I rode up to the top of Mt. Lemmon in the spring of 2010, I think it was late April. It was about 90-95 degrees in Tucson and about 50 degrees up top. There were large snowbanks for the last 1/3 of the ride and the road was really wet from runoff. We stopped for a picture in front of a large snowbank and I walked across the highway and looked over the guardrail to the east. There was snow for a couple of hundred feet then it was bone dry and brown beyond that. Kind of weird.

Yeah, I live here by choice Jerry.
This is where I was born and worked all my life. Cindy loves the job she has so I would not make her move to a different state. Notice how I blamed her for me living here. I blame her for alot of stuff don't I
