Default Rode 50 Miles today

I know that's nothing for you southern folk, but up here in Michigan we still have an abundance of snow on the ground. got a little chilled on the thighs but other than that its all good. Don't know about the rest of the country, but it felt like biking on the moon. WE have a ton of craters called potholes. although it was fun dodging those. My son took out his mother's Deluxe and rode with me making it even more enjoyable. We were the only bikes out and we got some funny looks like we're crazy, but hey it was 40 and sunny....

I ride to work in the mornings are its in the high 20's low 30's. The ride home is nice at 55 so its worth it. I only have a 15 minride so I can bear the cold that long.

Enjoy and hope the snow melts soon for ya

I ride every day to work. The other day I was rolling in some 18 degree weather. NOT FUN. It has been in the 70s the past 2 days but I've been sick. Sucks too because the temp is going back down for a few more weeks. *sigh*

I cant wait. Upper 40s here in Chicago for most of the week. Snow piles are dissappearing.
With any luck, a good rain to wash the roads and out next weekend or so.
Its been a long winter.

I know what you mean about the coolness and craters in the road, got a ride in yesterda and one today . The lowrider doesn't have a windshield like my superglide so I felt the wind chill more today. The one's that gave me the funniest looks were the joggers, especially the ones around Hope College here in Holland. The warmth is coming, I expect around July.

Did about 50 miles myself today here in NE Indiana. Bike ran like a champ, but it was just a bit chilly on the ears and face at 46* Had a big smile on my face the whole time though!! Bryan
