Default Anyone else getting a lot of riding in?

Done about a 1k miles since getting bike Christmas Eve. I must say that I am enjoying it very much. Finally have a bike that I can ride 150+ miles in a day and not be in all kinds of pain.

if you are getting in a lot of riding, where are you doing it at? I am in Orlando, Fl.

The weather here in B.C. is great for riding but my scoot is stripped down for winter upgrades. a lot of the Eastern sea board is under snow so some members here are out of luck!
Hatch.

I rode for a few hours Sunday hitting a couple watering holes along the way. South Carolina had some beautiful riding weather Sunday. I am also riding back and forth to work when it's not raining. Traffic sucks bad enough in the morning without adding the rain on the interstate.

I got to ride a bit last weekend but for the next few days all I can do is back up to the garage door and ride forward - repeat. Damn snow and ice!

Yup, going non-stop here. I have over 2,500 miles on the bike since early December. Well, I guess it's not fair since it's my only means of transportation!

Riding even though it's cold. It's good any time you can sneak in a ride to anywhere.........

I ride at least once per week. It has been in the low to mid seventies here in Arizona. It is going to cool down into the fifties this week, but I actually prefer riding in the cooler weather as long as it doesn't rain.
