    From about 1600 HRS yesterday til 0700 HRS this A M went thru a temp swing of 60 or 62 degrees F according to various weather services. An afternoon high of between 86 and 88 degrees here with a low of 26 degrees this A M! Well I DID yesterday git rid of that winter funk odor from the A/C in the cage!  2funny Been awhile since I've been subjected to THAT Wide a temp swing. RIDE SAFE.

Yup, wife & I rode the I/S to dinner yesterday at 73°. At 6:00 PM it was 32° and this morning it was 14° and 35 mph winds. Still been a pretty mild winter though. Put 350 miles on the scooter in February.   cooldude

We had three days of nearly 60 degrees temps. Normal is around 40 degrees.   Yesterday the winds came up, so the temps were not that great.  We have one more day of warm temps then an end of February storm comes in.  Snow, high winds, and below normal temps.   This year's El Nino has had our temps all over the range, from 20 degrees above normal to nearly 20 below.  Plus lots of rain/snow.   And O2S, the storm will come to visit you in a few days. 

I did get in a little over 260 miles this February.

Yep - we had the same kind of temp swing, plus we had a scant dusting of snow on the ground / vehicles when we got up this morning. I did get a 40 mile ride in on Monday, first time in a LONG time since I had last ridden.  (bad backs suck !!)
