It may be a few weeks until I can ride again. The temp must get above 50 degrees. Got my first Covid immunization shot yesterday. Will go back 4/3/21 for the second. Perhaps the fall we will get back to some form of normal, or should I say whatever the NEW normal will be. RIDE SAFE 118,000 miles and still going strong.

Saturday it warmed up into the high 50's F, got about 80 miles in. Last night it snowed 2-3 inches.
