Holy ***t........I live in ohio and we're getting 40degree weather.  Do you know what that means? Well..it means that the wonderful life that you warm climate monster owners have been enjoying is soon going to be available to us people in terrible weather states. Knowing that is enough to make today a wonderful day.

Hope you get to take advantage of it! [moto]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Yea!! Here in PA it's 46F!!!

Too bad My bike is sitting in the garage waiting for the exhaust tip....

Lots of bikes out today, funny seeing them with so much snow on the ground.

Is it supposed to get cold again or are we set for the season?
Is this thing on?

It's 71 and sunny here in DFW. Rode the Gixxer 1000 to get a new inspection sticker today. [moto] Supposed to be nice and around 70 all week. Beats the ice bowl we had the week before and after the Superbowl. This is TX and we don't do well in ice and snow. And it usually slaps us again in early March. I'm digging the nice 70 degree riding weather while I can. [thumbsup]

64 here today in East TN. High 50's to mid 60's rest of the week.  [moto] It's a welcome change after the unusually shitty winter we've had thus far.

First time I ever went to TX, I got off the plane in SAT and it was 16 degrees and snowing. I had no make the beast with two backsing idea that ya'll had weather like that. Neither my coworkers or myself came prepared. That was a make the beast with two backsing miserable 2 weeks of rain and snow at Ft. Sam.

too bad because you missed some of the best roads near Bandera and Big Bend.  Hell it's only 100 for a month or two.

Let me get my staff... ;)

I was going to try and 1-up you with my 5 inches of snow and ice...

but honestly sand is probably a shit load more dangerous than visible snow and if there's ice, I'm not riding.

So yea, sucks for you.
Is this thing on?
