Well no rides in January but I did get in a ride yesterday. It was a little chilly, mid 50's. But I was dressed for it. The current weather pattern leads me to believe spring will spring early this year, or at least I hope so. Retirement is still kind of slow, that is why the sooner spring weather gets here the better.

Glad somebody did - too much snow here in N Idaho! Maybe next month? Or?

I saw a HD dresser out on Wednesday evening, it was not warm out and it snowed again of Thursday. Yesterday a sport bike went past. It was in the 40's and sunny. There is a lot of road salt and sand, but that first ride of the year is getting closer, I can feel it!

My wife and I are currently in central Florida. I've trailered the Rocket down the last couple of years but didn't this time. The place where we are staying has an active group who ride and I'm kicking myself for not bringing mine down. Lots of Harleys, Wings and trikes. I've seen one Triumph Thunderbird but no other British marks. Looking forward to riding this summer in Canada. Planning another trip across Canada... It's been a few years since the last because of Covid. Glad that's behind us.

Can't believe another day in February temps in CT above 60 degrees. Went for another ride, it was very nice not cold at all. Just starting to build up endurance, Too bad the rest of the week back to seasonal weather. However my brother in Sarasota FL, rubs in the fact that today it's 83 degrees, sunshine and a mild breeze.
