Temp was up to lower 50s w/ cloudy sky in CT today. I pulled my old 88 Hurricane 600 of and do a 20 mi ride that was awesome. Cant wait til pull my 06 1000 back out. Anyone live with snow ride for 2008 yet?

Then today 3/14 I did another longer ride w/100mi. It feel so good to be back on the 2 wheels. Cmon where's the spring. I cant wait.

Default RE: 1st ride for the yr of 2008

In December it got up to 66 degrees in IN. I took half of the day off work and rode for hours. It was crazy to see 20-30 degree weather for 2 months and just get warm in one day. The next day it was like 50 but it rained all day. I also rode about 3 weeks ago for 10 minutes in about 42 degree weather, but there was still some snow on the ground, just not on the roads. Didn't want to venture out to far in that kind of weather though. We are supose to get 10 inches of snow tonight though. I can't wait for some warmer weather.

Here in Oregon, I've put on 200+ miles since mid Feb. We've had some dry warm spells in between the rain. It leaves us wanting for more. Look forward to the 70 degree temps. Feel sorry for the dudes in Ohio though with the blizzard.

awww... you guys suck. haha... just kidding. I look at my bike every day and then look at the thermometer. It was -28 last week. I'm still looking at 6 weeks before the snow is gone (and another 4 after that before the city starts street cleaning the 100,000 tons of sand they put down over winter) haha, but seriously, good for you guys and I cant wait till i can ride again.

Aw, hell, I got the days mixed up. I checked the calendar and it wasDec. 31st, not the 1st. It was 51 degrees here in southern Ohio on New Year's Eve day.
