Yeah, It gives a chance for the moths to fly out.

The weather goofs are predicting 60*f tomorrow. I've either been traveling or working honey do's for the last six days and I think i'm caught up at two 1/2 houses/yards.
I'm gonna get a ride in.

 

[CrazyDave]

down time?
PMS?
I dunno....
do some reflecting..I guess
go over some recent memories
slow down enough
to really see what
I have done this year
Did I make mods?
Did I like them?
What might I have missed the
last ride up north?
Plan..dream.. daydream
take recon trips in the car
for future rides
and every now and then
if atmospheric conditions
are right
flog the mistress
down a two lane
blacktop
on a sunny winter day.

Thanks that was very nice.

LoL, good one :lol:

Even down in the Arizona Valley we get "Winter", people have fires in their fireplaces in the evening when it hits 50 degrees.

To us 50-60 is cold and we don't ride so much at these temps. Its a state of mind or maybe conditioning but we think of and feel 50 as a Midwesterner would of 30 degrees.

For ABATE, Winter is an active time in legislation session in our state...

Wednesday, January 21 we have rented the Rotunda at the capitol...
Come talk legislation over chili lunch with your legislators...
We need GA riders to fill the Rotunda and overflow Washington Street in front of the capitol and show our support for our agenda for 2015...

I`ve posted links in my signature to access our newsletter, it has our agenda in the November issue...

Form a relationship with legislators in your district,
Dennis

Heck if thats the case I'm set for 365 day a year riding in AZ!

I've been riding down in the 30's for a month now and have done so with no chaps or the such. and I only ride with a thermal shirt under my fleece hoody and then that under my NON-insulated jacket! And that's coming from a guy who has nearly no body fat to keep warm and I get extremely cold while hunting when it drops into the 30's and 20's and I'll be wearing much more warmth gear.

Up in the 50's we're taking multi hundred mile group rides!

When I was young I liked winter, but at 71 it hurts.

I'm already tired of being able to saw wood with the electric meter on the side of the house.:x

My Oldest son and family live in Phoenix and trying to get us to move there.
When I was in the USMC we had a deployment in Yuma and it was about 115 in the day and 70 at night, we put on winter coats for night guard duty! the 45-50 degree change made it feel like winter!
but boy was it nice last Christmas out there in the 70's during the day! I think I could get used to that! Even though it's nice here that is much better!

I don't think so with additional costs of heating, snow removal and expensive strategies to keep our incoming water from freezing....my wallet is always much weaker after winter than before!:-(

I brought home a pick up full of Oak firewood, today...
We`ll be cozy

my winter gas and electric bills make my wallet it's bi... well... lets just say winter really isn't a break. not to mention my truck uses more gas than my bikes so it wants it's share of the money.

why am i not hating winter again?

forgot about the cost of "the Holidays" too, maybe its the opposite, winter is not only more cold but more expensive too:shock:

Those last few lines remind me of the old move "Two Lane Blacktop"
Man that sure did have a bad ending with that '55.
