Central Montana in the grip of early spring. Temperatures in the 40's, some rain, some snow. City streets are drying, still ice/snow in places. We aren't out of the woods yet though. Historically we have some of the heaviest snowfalls of the year in March or April, even into May.

Hang on in there DRam, Montana is a beautiful part of the world, worth the wait I would have thought.

We go snow very late in the spring in 2013, hoping we've got away with it this time though.

You've bloody done it now Hawk! It'll be snowing for the rest of the month.
I have three black fly on my headlight after last nights ride out into the windy roads of Essex. I was hoping to keep them there as a bit of a good luck omen but then you had to go and say it..... Shhhhhhhh!
I still have the Winter tyres on the car in a vague bid to keep the sun out but I have a nasty feeling the fat lady hasn't sung her final Winter song.
More bugs please!

Cheers Seb. He he...
I'll gladly have any of those critters splattered on my visor if the sun keep shining. Hawk is on the money with his sentiment and he's not the only UK rider I've heard rejoicing about even 5 minutes without rain over the last few days.
This is bloody Britain though. Predictable weather. Yeah... right!

I'm hanging on, resisting temptation. It's well worth the wait. My last ride on ice is the last time I'll ride on ice.
