Re: End of Riding Season

Yea for once they were RIGHT about us getting snow. I am so used to them being wrong, i drove out in that last night figuring we'd get rain like usual when they predict snow. Boy the mustang wasn't happy driving home last night.

That is funny!

We had a sleet and icy snow storm yesterday afternoon, not unexpected, and the roads got very slippery. I had driven the ranger to work and I wasn't stuck there. Now I'm thinking about studded tires for the Geezer...I know, I'm nuts... but maybe...
Forget the Geezer and stick with the Ranger. You will suffer less road rash.

Re: End of Riding Season

Something's going on down here right now, nothing to complain about though. It's been in the high 70's all this week in the panhandle of Florida, to hit 80 today. Got my side-zip leather overpants I ordered a few weeks ago when it was 55-60, but can't try them out 'cause it's too hot. Also had to switch to my lighter jacket. Like I said, nothing to complain about. C'mon down. No snow.
I remember the old days in NJ, when I had to get a Hummer (H1-Desert Storm type) in '95 because of the 2-3' of snow every few days for 4 months that winter, and snowblowing off the driveway every night only to get blocked in by the town snowplow cleaning off the streets in the middle of the night. Much better down here.

Re: End of Riding Season

Yes, we are in for a long, snowy and icy winter here in Illinois. Supposed to have a 1/4" to 1/2" of ice today and tomorrow. Sure hope the power doesn't go out!

Re: End of Riding Season

With smug expression & cheesy grin!

It's lovely and warm over here (simper, simper) - just like it is all year round.

Well, actually it was a bit chilly this morning, so I had to put a light jacket on

Oh hum .............!
