day 2 for the week, dry ride in and for the 40 mile ride north back home looks like I get all 3 flavors. Rain, sleet, SNOW!?!    It's almost March.... what the..  I've heard there no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing....     I'm just say'n

Well off the boat today and well riding home from work 2 weeks off ready to paint 

[Black Pearl's Captain]

2 weeks is a long ride to work ride!

I did get to ride today, 18 whole lovely degrees. Where the hell is spring?

No problems encountered just some strange looks  Got sunshine today, 32 coming in and they say 50 for the return.... Gotta luv this Texas weather.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, it was sort of windy on the way home, a little, I guess.."

Don't worry about it Mike, I get it from the New York/Minn. crowd all the time.  I TRY not to rub it in, but it is really hard sometimes.

P.S.  I rode to work on Monday, but had to visit customers the past 2 days, so I drove the big white 4X4 Dodge Megacab... 

[Black Pearl's Captain]

It was like riding to work in Florida today. Clear and a balmy 25 degrees.

Heat wave in Kansas, 34 this moring with 48 later today.

I think 34- 35 is my personal "low" temp setting. I can ride all day at that temp with my gear and be "comfortable". Not too cold and just the Gerbings gloves running.


Hey ya'll, have a good weekend.

Raymond

[Black Pearl's Captain]

I'm in! Yesterday was a day off so it's 1 for 1 this week. It may just be spring...56 is forecast for tomorrow.

Raymond

[Willow]

I rode.  The signs were displaying 23 - 28 on the way in, but it's predicted to reach 42 before the day is done.

[Karen]

38 going in, about the same coming home, rain for tomorrow, but the rest of the week looks good!

[franco6]

lots of rain in houston yesterday, put on my motoboss suit ,it was fine !
does any one else like to ride in the rain? 

[Bob E.]

I almost rode today, but I passed because they are calling for snow showers today.  No real accumulation, but still, it could get a little slick.  Another big problem around here, beside all the crap on the roads, is that we have so much snow on the ground and during the day the temps rise and the snow melts...running all kinds of water across the roads.  Then at night it freezes, creating alot of icy spots.  It has been getting better, but still you have to be careful.  But it is warming up more and more each day...so maybe I'll ride tomorrow.

In summer when it's about 88 degrees and the sun is shining I don't mind the rain.  But if you ride much you're gonna get wet sometime so it comes with the ride.

I had a good ride in this morning, around 35 or so.

franco6, I was imitating a jet ski too on monday. The rest of the week looks good. Rain, sleet and snow, the ole girl didn't care.....she loves to lead the way      for every day you miss you'll never make up    I'm just say'n

[Bob E.]

I actually braved the cold and crappy roads and took the Valk to work today.  Weather man said it was about 20 degrees or so when I left the house at 7am but heading into the upper 30s this afternoon.  A couple places were pretty sketchy with ice from the melting snow running across the road.  But I had no problems...just real careful.  I sure wish my Gerbings would get here.  They are on back-order.   

[Black Pearl's Captain]

You're gonna love those new Gerbings if you ever get them. Does that make you feel warmer?  

It was colder today at 29 but clear. I gave the Interstate it's spring wash last night. It looks much better clean and shiny once again.

Raymond

[Willow]

I rode.  Displays showed 22 - 28.  Crossing Lawrence I stopped at a light and had a short (and pleasant) exchange with a rider on a Harley Sportster.  He wanted to know if it was cold enough.  I didn't see any other Valkyries.

It should be significantly warmer on the way home.   

[Karen]

Left for work after the snow stopped, the ride home was 40 & glorious.  I think spring may be at least breathing hard.

[Bob E.]

I rode to work today again.  I rode last Thursday...was off Friday since my hours got cut...and rode today.  So technically, that's 2 in a row!!  WooHooo!!!!!  I'm on a roll! 

[Big Rig]

Rode in today also...man it has been a loooooong time...about 6 weeks...should be able to get 3 days this week...

WooHoo...

[Karen]

Today made two in a row, looks like it might be good for all week, hope you all in Oklahoma are staying safe, there were pictures of tornadoes in the news tonight. No heated gear, and I was too warm in my 3 season jacket. Feels really good taking the long way to & from!

[HayHauler]

I seem to get flamed when I tell how much I have been riding, so I won't say.  Let's just say that yesterday I didn't ride because of the 80% chance of rain...

[Big Rig]

+2 4 me 

Can not remove the grin.

[cutter]

Don't worry about Jimmyt, I got your back and will take the heat..... besides, I rode yesterday even with the 80%.  Got today covered too...

[Black Pearl's Captain]

There must be rain from Kansas to the gulf today. I got wet all the way to work in our 80% stuff.

Raymond

[Oss]

Rode in to work today    but not on the Valkyrie. She did get exercise over the weekend and will go to work with me tomorrow  Temps into the 50's today  WOOHOO !!

your 80% rain will arrive thurs evening


I think I will leave early and keep missing my exit for home, maybe even go over the Hudson and visit my parents,  yep sounds like a plan for sure they enjoy when I take em out for lunch

[mhallock]

First ride (to work) of the season!! 30 degrees when I left this A.M., but it should be 50 degrees or so on the way home. Spring is here!!!

Mark

[scoot]

I finally got to ride to work this morning first time since mid November. It was around 25 degrees and frosty, but it was 45 degrees and sunny when I left work. . That made the fridgid ride well worth it.

[Karen]

Another winner, come on tomorrow!

[Cliff]

First ride to work of the season today, a brisk 21 degrees but this afternoon should be nice on the way home!!!

[cutter]

no jacket required for the ride to the casa yesterday.....    mid 60's for the ride in today  when is see the ole pecan trees budding I'll consider spring officially here 

[Serk]

Mid 60's on the way in, 70's by the ride home, but might be severe thunderstorms, don't care... hadn't ridden in a week or two... heck, hadn't left the HOUSE in a week or two...

[Black Pearl's Captain]

You must have those slow southern trees down there, lots of buds on trees up here in North North Texas.

35 this morning coming in.....

[Bob E.]

I rode to work today...cloudy and chance of rain, but 60* F.  Can't beat that.  Unfortunately, when I went home at lunch time, I had to leave it and take the Jeep.  I have to pick up the kids after work. because my wife has an appointment.  I could have ridden yesterday, but I didn't because I had my bowling league last night...and it can be a pain to strap the bowling bag on the rear seat.  I've done it several times, but when the road conditions are sketchy and the temps are not that comfortable, it's just not worth the hassle.

[Oss]

Valkyrie is smiling in the parking lot because she got to play today

2 days in a row  woohoo  riding  next 3 days are supposed to be gully washers

[Big IV]

I've ridden to work speedo-less every day for the past few weeks. I've been busy and haven't had time to post anything, but it happened.  Still trying to fix the speedo.
I've picked up extra hours at work trying to make more money but I'm not sure if it is worth it most days. I haven't found a routine yet.

Commute to ride, ride to commute.

Now there's a picture I didn't really want.    

Anybody notice this thread is approaching a thousand replies?  Should we have a party or something?
