I thought Arizona would offer non stop winter riding :roll:  So much damn rain & cold weather I haven't ridden in over a week.  We haven't had it as bad as California as far as rainfall amount, but it still stinks.

Thankfully it will be in the high 60's this weekend  :mrgreen:

I rode today. Still made it to work in the time it usually takes me.
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

If you apologize to us North Easterners for gloating about your good weather we will consider letting you move back.
I talked to the people that bought your house.  It went up $150,000 in the few months they had it.  However they will let you buy it back for only $100,000 more.
:lol:
It's going to be 60 degrees on Thursday and I'm taking a day off from work.  Going to go on a serious ride.  Eat your heart out.

Just think....
I'm currently listening to the snow blowing against my window at about 40km/h, the temp is -20C (-4F) with a wind chill of about -30 (-22F). :guns:
There is a winter storm warning issued for tomorrow for a -43C windchill (that's -45.4F !!!!) with snow to boot - HELP!!
I haven't been on my bike since Nov 21/04  :x  (and you got issues !?)
Went to Florida for Christmas and envied the riders I saw there.
Countin' down to the m/c show here on Jan 21-23 then just waiting for SPRING!!!!!

Keep riding - where you can. Can't believe the bizarre weather happening all over the continent. Be safe - be smart.

Yeah, this Socal rain is testing my patience.  I've only gotten about 50 miles on my bike so far because of it.  

I like the rain and all, but this is crazy  :o

If it's sunny tomorrow morning, I'm riding to work, damnit!  :mrgreen:
