December has been warmer than normal here in NW Iowa, so I have been able to ride quite a bit. But colder temps and snow are in the forecast and the Spyder has been tucked away for the winter.

A video of one of my last rides of 2020.

Nice! Yeah, I put mine away for the winter last weekend. A good long riding season! About the only good thing this year!
I’ve driven around the lake a few times, nice route.

Very nice. I am noting that you have mostly all "brown" scenery now. We still have assorted green patches in the farmland areas.

Was looking at the forecast, and it looks like you folks are going to get some snow soon. I am watching from two states South.

I enjoyed the ride. :firstplace:

Hit the low 50s today near Rochester in upstate NY, rode the Spyder home from the dealer after an oil change ... then rode the Wing to work and back! That's probably it for the year ... over 11,000 miles, by far the most I have ever logged.

dpetrick,
Must have just missed you, rode Okoboji around Big Spirt to Loon Lake then the river road from Jackson to Estherville then home to E'burg by the sea.
Was a warm day.

Glad you enjoyed the probable last ride of the year.. Unfortunately, I never got out on my Spyder when we had that nice weather??? It's colder than a grave digger's rear these current days.. we live in Belleuve, Ne just across the river from Council Bluffs.. HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU!

Went out and rode that same day for about 150 miles. Mostly south of Sioux City in Iowa and Nebraska. I ride a lot up North and West of Vermillion SD, but next spring want to ride up your way. Maybe some of us can get together up your way. In the meantime, my F3 is safely in the garage for the winter.
