Weather break

I've been chopping ice in my driveway for the last week so it would melt faster, with the mindset of riding ASAP. I have a gravel driveway and decided to cover ice near the shed where the bike was stored, and with my son standing by, backed the nomad out and took my first ride of the yr in the 50+ degree day.

I was so pumped. It was like, when that first spring day hit's you.

Didn't care that the bike was filthy.

All right guys what are these set backs we're talkin about.

Leg, Shoulder?

By the way, won't be a 50 degree day coming again for awhile.

The CA and southern boys are probably laughing at a 50 degree day.

I feel for you guys. Today was near 70 and not a cloud in the sky. Too bad I'm working nights and have to sleep during this great weather.
