In my more eager days, the winter wheels would go on the car and the summer wheels into the basement for the rest of the year at Thanksgiving.

That being said, if the weather holds out, I might put the bike away for the winter in another week or so. Riding my bicycle is hard enough when it's cold out and generating a 60+mph headwind certainly doesn't help to stay warm.

What can I say? ummm- it's the middle of November in souther cal. its 85 degrees f. And I am wearing my summer jacket. Sorry boys and girls. I couldn't resist.

I suppose we'll need water soon.

I'm dying to ride as well, but cold this weekend here (-7deg C overight) and freezing rain today.

So...the best I could do was clean out the whole garage and get ready for the winter mod season. Flat tire to fix on the XR 80, New rear tire on the CR 250, valve adj and service on the TTR125L, sell the KDX110 and look for a larger bike for my youngest daughter.

The Bandit will get valve adjustment, a Zero Gravity Double Bubble screen, maybe relube steering head bearings, and possibly a shock upgrade (if I can find a 2G 1200S shock).

These tasks will have to keep me from going stir crazy. I have ordered a copy of DH Highway Nothern California, and we will start planning our May trip soon.

Where ya from wyntrblue? Some of us can't. For instance, I can't get the damn thing out of the driveway...

Just got back from a midnight run, roughly a 25-mile loop around my home. I was averaging 60-70mph at ~35°, which is 17°-16° on the 'ol wind chill chart. Great night to ride.

There's a driveway in that picture? I thought it was an aerial shot of the fjords of Norway!

Though they look close,... yeah.. the driveway is the low spot in the pic,... the non-blueish-white part.

Though the blueish white stuff is also taking over the driveway as well. Got another inch of so of the fluffy white @$#@ again last night. Surely we'll hit the quota soon and this will go away? I could live with sweltering hot for Christmas.

haha, lmao,

I seriously thought that was an Aerial picture of Ant-Arctica,

After a much closer look, I realised that this is a picture of your drive way
