Post by: philkinsr on February 08, 2015, 05:25:47 pm: I was out today with my new bike (FJ-09) and Mark Hanke (GS1150). Beautiful warm winter day. I might just do it tomorrow too, cause the weather is holding for at least day.

Post by: Greg on February 08, 2015, 06:35:16 pm: The few good riding days during the winter in Ky must also fall on a Sat or Sun due to that work thing for me to be able to take advantage of them. But I can usually count on at least a day or two every month. Sunny and 60 yesterday and sunny and 70 today. Very rare to have two weekend days this nice this time of year.

Big Lynn Lodge is still there and waiting for us but the BRP was closed South bound from Lil' Switz. 181 from Morganton to Jonas Ridge was in track day condition until you got to the very top. Salt and sand. 226A down from Lil' Switz was salty white in a lot of places and crap in the corners. It ain't summer yet, folks

Post by: David on February 22, 2015, 02:10:33 pm: I had very nice ride on the 8th. Now that seems like long time ago. Sand, salt snow and ice and 1 more week of this miserable month.

Post by: NinjaBob on February 28, 2015, 02:03:12 am: Too cold lately for the Ten98. Today I rode 40 miles round trip to the gym on the Concours 14 but yesterday it was 160 miles for a rib plate for lunch.

Post by: Patmo on February 28, 2015, 07:50:48 am: I bought a new bike a month ago....so far I've put 4 miles on it. It took me 20 minutes to clean the junk from the roads off it from just that short run. It hasn't been out of the garage since. Considering it 13 degrees outside right now, and they are calling for some more snow tonight, I doubt it will see any daylight anytime soon. :(

Meantime, my son in Phoenix keeps sending me pictures of him riding in the mountains out there....*%#+?!!!

Post by: HawkGTRider on February 28, 2015, 08:29:11 am: Of course, everything is relative. However, a typical January/February means I've ridden somewhere between 700-1000 miles. This year has been a bit worse. I racked up a whopping 653 miles in January. And unless I get out today and go somewhere, I'll have an amazing 441 miles this month. I went for nearly two weeks without throwing my leg over a bike.

You northern guys need to quit sharing those cold temperatures and frozen precipitation...I don't want any more for a while.
