    Default Got the snow off

    After about a week, sitting under a cover topped with snow, I finally decided to go clean off my Ryker. Knocked the snow off the cover and shoveled around it. Exposed a lot of bare pavement, which I knew would soon melt off. Temp today was around 30°. Then cranked her up. After sitting for a week in very low double to single digits she started right up. If the weather holds up like this for a few more days, it should be good to ride. Fingers crossed, I'm Jonesing for a ride.

    I feel bad for you guys up north, it would bother me too, not to ride for as long as some of you have to wait. Wish I could send you some of this warm Florida weather that we've been having. I'd probably be spending a lot of that down time watching new riding videos, reading reviews on new model two wheelers, and working on the Ryker in the garage changing things and adding accessories.
