I'm looking out the window and again it's snowing on a day when earlier weather reports said 36 degrees. The roads were clear and i was gonna go for a short ride anyway. I keep having the same dream about sunshine and the sound of lawnmowers and smelling grass and sitting on a motorcycle toolong around.  Riding season is only a little ways away.......

man, i'm right there with ya.... I think I'm going crazy.... cant handle it... arggggggggggh.  :guns:  :guns:  :guns:  

Put the bike in the garage and get to work that's my task for today...
If this weather keeps up, I'll probably be able to field strip and reassemble the bike blindfolded!  :lol:  Well maybe not cause I'm not very experienced at working on the bike  

mine's been sitting down there for a month.  I just feel too depressed to acutally go down and start stripping it down.  I know once I start it'll be in pieces in no time.  it's just the first step.. . plus we're trying to save for a new house and my wife is keeping a tab on my bike spending.. :dunno:  sigh.

Their is no use in gloating about the warm weather down here. What advantage we have in mild temps we make up with rainy days.

I heard somewhere Mobile is one of the rainiest citys in the U.S.

Note the rain pouring off the roof. Leaves plenty of time for the GS to sit and rust.

Perfect riding weather here.

If you own a snowmobile....

Tell me that's not an operational bike being snowed on like that!!!!  

Oh, the humanity!!! Put a cover on that thing!!!

It is ...but it's not mine.

Hm....But then if I rode a Honda.... :lol:

Maybe they just hadn't cleared it off for the day's riding yet.

I was at the breakers to pick up an exhaust last summer.  I needed help to tip-over the GS frame, since it had sunk into the mud/dirt.  The bottom frame rails were gone, buried an inch in the mud.

Anyways, we got it pushed over, and the exhaust looked OK, so we pulled it.  After a few hours of sanding with a wire brush, it looked great.  I'm impressed, 'cuz at the breakers, it looked like that junked bike had become a part of the firmament.

Bikes are tough!

I guess so, but sheesh!!!  You'll never see MY GS covered in snow like that  

anyway... I'm routing for an early spring, 'cause I've found lately that I'm compensating for lack of riding by buying a crapload of gear that I can't really afford.  If could just get out and ride.... aaaaargh.
