68 deg. here in Southern Il. today. Going riding for sure. Normally the RK would be on the lift in the basement now. I've been waiting for a warm enough day to ride a little and change the oil. Today I'll warm her up for about 4 hours. Sorry Al, I still think you're full of it, but I do like the weather.

Supposed to be 60's here this weekend and unfortunately I am in the middle of putting apes on so everything is in pieces, lol. Maybe I will finish in time to test them.

Record high Temps here in Northeast Ohio this weekend. I'll be out for a ride too. I'm just glad AL Gore invented the Internet so we can order more bike parts

Same weather here in the Kansas City area. I've put on over 1,000 miles since December 1. Just a few short rides, though. Haven't gone far on any one day. 300 miles was my longest ride this month. I leave about lunch time and try to get home before well before dusk to avoid running into the frickin' deer that begin leaping all over about then. They are thick around here!

Gore was right, still is. Enjoy your ride while you can!

If Al Gore was right about anything it was purely by accident.

It was 62 in ND yesterday. Set a new record. I am all for warming. Maybe we will be the new Phoenix?

Still nice here too, but we've had some white stuff, and there's too much gravel on the roads now. A buddy was out a couple of weeks ago, slipped on some gravel rounding a corner, broke like 16 ribs. I think his bike is a writeoff. Too bad too, he just redid the engine last winter. At least he will be okay, and will be well enough soon to start the bike rebuilding process. I think this will end up a salvage title, but my guess is he'll own it until he can't ride anymore anyway.
