Put on about 30 miels, today. It's been unseasonally warm, what little snow that has fallen melted within the day and it was in the mid/upper 30s.

Rode the 'Wing all last week. Today, I had to pick up a part for my boiler. It was 35, sunny, and the roads were dry. So I took Mrs.Minis scooter. I came back home three hours later

One of the worst moments of my life was riding through rush hour traffic in Atlanta.

La Nina my ass, I finally bought a car in October after 2+ years without one. THAT'S why the weather's been great, or at least warm if wet, this winter.

150 miles today out to Frederick, MD and back. Also took a Sportster 883 Superlow for a test ride, fun little bike.

If the roads weren't so salty and I didn't have my insurance on hold, I would have ridden all week, too. It's been sunny and in the 40's.

Rode to work today. Around 6pm I got sent home to change my bike for my car since it was starting to get really snotty out... 2 hours later (and before I was off) it stopped. Built in extended paid lunch break ftw!

I got to ride twenty days in January. For Upstate Central NY, that's not too shabby! We got 12" of wet white stuff on Monday and it was gone by Wednesday. Of course I rode!

Rode the Ruckus to work a few days ago, I can't wait until it's warm enough to ride regularly again.

In reply to dculberson:

The city throws down so much salt (mixed with sand), it's worse than a gravel road. On top of that, I'm not too thrilled about washing my bike in below freezing temps.

Got a good practice day in yesterday (2-4) trying to get ready to ride a couple GNCC's (offroad) this year. My buddy has a nice 4 mile woods track that a couple pro's practice on.

In reply to RealMiniDriver:

I haven't washed my bike since I bought it.

Fortunately they've mostly switched to brining the roads here, until heavy snow actually falls, so once the brine soaks in it's easier to ride on than the loose stuff.
