New Years Day Ride
#1
First ride of the New Year
I don't think it's broken out of the mid 30s for several days. Still some visible ice on the roads, not to mention plenty of black ice. Not the best road conditions, but with the cold air, the bikes run like they're supercharged.
I didn't get much more than about 30 miles in today, just got out to get out for a bit. The trickiest thing was just getting out of my driveway, but a little rock salt and cat litter made the drive a little less treacherous.
Anyone else get out for the first ride of the New Year today?

Did my 10th Annual New Years Eve run last night, gets you the last ride of the year and by coming in after midnight you also get the first ride of the year. We finally got above freezing and a good rain took care of most of the snow, and while I do rinse my bikes off with a garden sprayer they do have rust on them- damn salt. But hell I bought them to ride! Best wishes for the new year.
