How I long for a ride on the roads of Vt., actually we need the
frost heaves to flatten out a little.

We'll be riding the snow blowers in the North East after tonight.

Got a few hundred miles in this weekend and now cooler temps are forcing the bike back in the shed. Back to riding Thursday then 70% rain on Friday.

No riding today, I work from home on Tuesdays and Thursdays, one of the perks of working in IT. I did ride yesterday and it was close to 90° on the way home.

I know we are all sick of winter but I am not looking forward to the mid to high 90s we will be headed for by June. I know CJ is used to it by now, but that kind of riding just sucks! Makes me want to run all the red lights just to avoid stopping and sitting there melting.

You have much more humidity than we do. I'll take 105° and 6% humidity over 90° and 85% humidity any day.

Good point ! It can get downright miserable here.

Big Bro on his Drifter, and me, on my Big Assed Nomad...did a "Flower Power Ride", over "Table Mountain" yesterday...(raining here today)..It was ---yea you know it, 75 degree's(f) calm, clear, sunny--Severe CAVU !

Considering my /our..inability to handle heat above about 85 degrees(f) anymore..Big bro and I both bought the "Cooling Vests", last spring....and after riding thru the length of Oklahoma last summer in Mid July..I can STATE..Those Cooling Vest's Saved Our Live's !

Well looks like I zoned-out and posted the same photo twice...MOX NIX !

It's raining the last 24 hours...maybe 50 degrees (f) now -12:30 am...
watched a good western on Net Flix, an unknown/un-promoted movie, starring Ed Harris..(hard to find a good western anymore)

Planning on a short ride today after work if I get my honey do's knocked out. Rain sets in tonight thru tomorow night so its now or wait till Sunday.

Warmed up a little today around 65*F. I got in a 75 mile ride today and it was nice.

Got about an hour in yesterday just tooling around town. Then spent some time cleaning the dirt and grime from the weekend...much better now. No rides this weekend due to the rain.
