Rode today!! 12-26

Just wanted to try out my wife's new HP Notebook. 15" WalMart $199. Hate windows 10, but what can you do. It is 75 degrees in Northeast Ms. Rode my non-Savage bike 40 miles. Good sunny ride, but the wind was gusting trying to push me into the grass. Expecting rain and cooler front in here by tomorrow morning. Not nearly as bad as most of our nation right now.

Merry Christmas and happy and safe New Year. Boofer

What part of MS are you in? I'm probably closer than I think.

It was surprising to see the weather that we're having today. It's almost January and it's in the 70's!

There's no problem that a full tank of gas and a sunny day can't fix!

Boofer, if you hate Windows 10 perhaps you should study some of Oldfellers posts. If your equipment is new, it may be set for Windows 10. Sadly it appears that going to this Linux thingy requires some computer literacy far in advance of mine. At least you could enjoy a ride, I had a short one last evening and it was very pleasant.

I took a short ride yesterday afternoon too.  The balmy weather was just too good to pass up.  It was 70 here in eastern OK.
It felt good. 😎

I'm glad to see I'm not the only nut job out there riding this time of year. On my X-mas day ride I counted 3 other riders out there braving the 40 degree weather and I still heard the howl of sportbikes on the interstate late at night as usual. It's 55 today and I'm stuck at work  Angry
I'll be taking a night ride later on though

I could have gone for a ride....it was 70 degrees in Kentucky!

Unfortunately I was in a car fighting traffic on I-71 - my wife and I were driving home after spending Christmas with my mother.

It was about 19 degrees when I got home here in Boise yesterday afternoon.  About a foot of snow and still packed on the roads.  Started the bike under the carport, and let it run while sitting on it for about 10 minutes while it warmed up and charged the battery.  Wishful thinking.  Sad
