I was complaining yesterday about how hot it is in the sun in my backyard (face South) doing some yardwork. Then I remembered that's the first time I've seen the sun and warmer temps. in a while. I then said to myself "shut up and stop being such a wuss". Got the work done so today I can ride and enjoy the 60 degree weather

48 degrees, a bit cloudy and snow in the overnight forecast.....Happy Easter.

We didn't have family things going on today so I took myself a little ride, because if it snows tonight I'll probably lose my frigging mind. I didn't see anyone else out riding.

BTW I paid $5.20 a gallon for 93 octane today. The price has gone up a good 50 cents a gallon in the last week around these parts.

Paid $4.55 a gallon here for 93 today. It has come down slightly.

I paid 8 1/2 dollars for a quarter pounder with cheese and a cuppa coffee… The wind was free, and I didn’t put any gas in the bike… The sun was a pure bonus…

It was nice to see the three amigos were all out on the bikes today all the same time… Lol…

Dammit! I hear you Jeff.
Forecast for 4 - 8 cms (2 - 4”) here tomorrow in Southern Ontario, and that sucks!
Gassed up the truck today. $151.9 per litre for regular.
Everything is bad right now, the weather, the gas prices, lets just getting riding so we can try and forget about all this!

Cheers, Terry

I guess when I say I paid for my gas, I should clarify that the price was $5.20 per gallon for the gas I put in the bike, but I am still using the Shell gift cards I got when I retired, so I haven't paid anything out of my pocket to ride the motorcycle so far this year. The Limited only has 26 miles on the current tank of fuel and I have just over $18 left on my last gift card. If the temps his the 70's at the end of the week, like they "say" it will, I will be out of gift card money.

What a coincidence Jeff. I retired from a Shell refinery here in Ontario.
Glad the Shell gift cards could help you out!

Cheers, Terry

I woke up to rain… And it is suppose to not only rain all day, but also for about 8 or 9 days now… So it’s a good thing I got a ride it yesterday… I don’t notice that cop car in your pictures anymore… Did he finally get fed up with you and move out of the neighbourhood to nicer digs??

We are sitting here at 1:34 pm just waiting for it to start.
We are afraid that when it finally does, it could get very nasty.
Best stay put today, Turn up the heat in the mancave and go “fiddle around”

Cheers, Terry
