Three weeks ago I put on around 300 miles over the course of a weekend. Since then it has been cold, windy and snowy. Typical March weather in SD I suppose but I'm ready to go riding again dernitt !�� anyone else out there chomping at the bit!

I had a rare weekend off, and made plans to hit a weekly "Cars and Coffee" on Saturday morning. I had such an itch to ride that I rode in 30 degrees. My hands were cold by the time we got there, but the hot coffee had me ready to enjoy the beautiful afternoon ride.

It's been too cold lately for much of anything. However, last Saturday I rode all day. It was in the 70's and I couldn't pass up the chance!

congrats Dave !   Cool

520 lbs.  of FUN !   Smiley

65 HP is plenty with some left over .

------------------------------------

I went for a ride Saturday .  I met the rest of our CMA group at 8am at a place an hour away from the house , so at 7AM when I left it was 35 deg.    I had so many layers on I couldn't move but stayed warm.  By 11:00 I was shedding layers.   The day ride totaled about 300 miles and the afternoon topped out in the high 60's.  Smiley   Ya'll remember the gloves with the zippered cuff that has a rain cover ...  Wink



-------------------------

Gus ,  is the big ride in SD worth making the trip ?
