I KNOW some of y'all have weather "issues" to deal with but on the udder hand I managed to git in 165 miles today. 60ish sunshine windy but overall NOT a bad day to ne out and about. Lotsa other folks on 2 wheeled transportation doin similar things to what I wuz doin!  Roll Eyes AND right near 35 M P G on my roll today. If yer putting up with crapola/kaka/poopoo/chitty weather where you reside-well it were here couple days ago! Do sweepin out the cobwebs in FACT make more room for more cobwebs thus needin yet ANOTHER ride to clear out the newly formed cobwebs?  2funny RIDE SAFE.

I saw the same small 250-500cc crotch rocket this past week in the morning commute both 37 degrees out driving guessing to work.  It warmed up both days to upper 40's but still tad bit too early for me even though I see extended forecast next 15 days with a few 50 temps in the mix.  Now I see a few more inches of snow coming shortly soon so going to have to put charging the batteries on hold to ride.  Usually is last week of March or first week of April for sure.

I was going to go yesterday when near 48 degrees to a dealership who has 100's of cycles to test drive but after calling them up yesterday at 10 a.m. when opened, they do not allow anyone under age 18 to test drive any cycle.  My kid is age 17 wanting to go just test drive a few to beat the winter blues along with me on a few but no sense in driving 2 hours just to sit on the seat making VROOM VROOM noises.

Another closer dealer does not even allow ANYONE to test drive ANY crotch rocket style cycle EVER before buying which I think is stupid, even say a 250cc engine.  Their policy is buy NOW and if do not like have 3 days to return it free of charge supposedly.  NO thanks!!  Liability insurance must be a _itch!
