70+ in N. Illinois / S. Wisconsin -- Gone riding

**glwilson** · 11-07-2009, 04:56 PM

We had a freak-weather weekend here at the northern-edge of Illinois and into Southern Wisconsin.

It got to the low 70's today... so the bike got un-wrapped and pulled out of winter storage to give it one more day of riding.

Given that this is November 7th... I am assuming this will be it for the year... at least for me -- but who knows!

But for today... I rode about 5-hours and had a blast. I'll re-clean and re-prep the bike for winter storage tomorrow just in case this was the last-hoorah.

Glad you could get another "riding fix" in this season Greg. I am envious, as I was trapped at work in beautiful riding weather.

LW... at least you'll have plenty of other opportunities while I am shoveling snow. That makes ME envious!!!
