Started out at 9 AM about 20 degrees, rode about 30 miles to meet up with 8 other idiots. We met at the IHop in Springfield for something warm then went for a short ride. Then back to the house, about 100 miles total by the time I got home, warmed up to 23 degrees.

Installed my Clocks4bikes that mom gave me and the Sissy bar I gave myself. Took my 10 year old and rode into Leesburg. Passed about 8 other Harleys on our nice back road and there were a few guys mounting up at the local biker bar as we cruised through town. Made my sons day....and mine : )
Perfect start for a New Year.

I rode all day today. Started out meeting the kids and grandkids for breakfast and then took a ride up around Lake Winnipesaukee. Both bike and myself were covered in crap when I got home but had a great day!
Who's crazier?

100 miles with Momma (2up) 75 degrees
Short morning ride with the wife. Mostly back roads (twisties & hills do exist in FL.)...
75 degrees by the time we had stopped for coffee; I couldn't live any place other than Fl.
Probably 100 or so bikes at the friendly "Hess Station" on Cortez Blvd. when we turned around for home

But the wife was ok with that, as she hates the cold.
(We were the couple on the blue Fat Boy)

I've been gone all day with the wife so I didn't get to ride until it got cold and dark again. Just a short ride but at least I've ridden every day this year.
Yesterday it was 64 degrees but rain and thunderstorms, today clear but high of 30.

me on my road king, wife on her sporty and son on his sporty rode down to crystal river and back (about 230 miles). though pretty windy, was dry and not cold, so def no complaints. further south we went, the more bikes we seen. we enjoyed our first ride of the year with each other
