Took a little ride this morning, 140 miles. Went to lunch at the best eats in Kansas on K99 north of Wamego, 26 degrees when I left, 48 when I got back.  Saw this when I got up.

Had lunch here.
 
First decent ride in six weeks!  Happy I am!   cooldude  Hoser

Just in my driveway, that was purdy hairy, the roads are clear, sand on hills and corners, I'm used to that this time of year. Not many wet spots, and it was above freezing most of the day.  uglystupid2  Hoser

  Hey Hoser, have a good ride and be safe.  looks like it will be a little warmer for you tomorrow. i still don't like the looks of all that snow in your yard and driveway.

Just got back, the rear turn signals quit,  The rear harness is trashed,  I had a bit of trouble at Inzane last year, same problem.  I just ordered a new harness from hdl, cost me 12 bux. I will have the rear fender off soon on a tire change. cooldude

Gonna be a little bit longer before I can get the bike out yet. 3 foot drift still blocking the door and even if I shoveled it out half the (gravel) driveway is still ice and the other half is mud.  Angry

Maybe by the end of the week - though the weather is looking better every day!

I had to run to the bank and saw 5 bikes out with salt and slush on the roads.
On the way my car slid almost off my bridge on the ice that is there, and had to dig and push it off the icy bridge to go.

So it will be a while before I take my lovely fat lady for a ride, ' don't want salt on her and definately do not want her in my creek.
