i also try to start it once a month, let it come to idle, get warm, then go back inside and dream about warm weather.

There are occasional cold days. on those days, i dream about warm weather, like... the next tuesday.

in TN, it got cold. you could not ride for several months. Things are significantly different in Texas.

I forgot thats where you came from. I thought you had lost your dang mind.  [laugh]

Kinda like people in Phoenix wearing their down North Face jackets when it drops below 70.  [bang]

It blew my mind the first couple weeks of classes last year when we first moved here, when the Californians that had moved to Dallas for school were complaining about the humidity... I took that to mean they had never been to the southeast in mid summer where you get sweaty from being outside instantly, even if its only 80-85degF.

December and January 60 degrees?  It was below 40 last week one morning on the way to work.  I thought I was going to have to ask a co-worker to help me take of my helmet because my hands were numb.  The summer gloves just aren't cutting it anymore. ;D
