    You have about the same weather that I have here in NE Ohio. Nothing like finally being able to ride. Went out at lunch and rode for an hour. Just now finished up cleaning all the salt and mud off it for the last 2 hours. Was totally worth it. I'll do it again tomorrow!

    Jack,

    Rode down your way today with 5 other bikes. Had a good lunch at Lupe's in Oracle Junction. Than over to Mammoth, Winkelman, Kearney (for ice cream), Superior, and back home. It IS a dry heat. Best time of year for riding around here..... Jim

    82 degrees in the Hill Country west of Austin yesterday, the wife and I did a 250 mile ride through the beautiful countryside. Glad we did as rain is predicted for the next 4 days.

    We did the Winkelman loop yesterday. Champagne RTL Chrome, White RTL and Indian two wheeler. We came down 177 to Winkelman and up 77 to Globe and back to Gold Canyon. 177 is pretty bumpy. 77 is much more fun with big high speed sweeping corners. Next time I think we will just do Gold Canyon to Globe, to Winkelman, to Globe and back to Gold Canyon. The scenery each direction on 77 is different. Nice day for riding.

    Well, this time last week there was MAJOR ice and snow, the most since 1939. Also broke the record for the number of days at freezing or below. No power for a week, water went down last Tuesday. It was restored last Saturday, although with little pressure, and a boil water alert was issued. Got full pressure back 2 days ago, and the boil water alert was lifted today. Thought I was back in Connecticut. Of course this coming summer we will most likely have a large number of consecutive days at 100 degrees or more. The old saw in Texas is "If you don't like the weather, stick around, it will change". Like today, 55 degrees and raining.

    Here in Utah we still have snow on the ground in our front yard and LOTS more in the mountains. Thr roads are clear and dry but that doesn't matter to me as the Spyder is in the shop getting a new stator. The days are beautiful as only these late Utah winter days can be. Clear,crisp,cold and beautiful.
