    It's supposed to be rainy this weekend and 40 to 50 degrees. Even if there wasn't any rain, I still wouldn't ride! I'm a wuss when it comes to COLD weather!

    The weather has finally started cooperating here, in Northern Florida. (referred to as southern Georgia, mostly). I do commisurate with ya'll up north, tho. I lived thru that for most of my life, and along with cabin fever, came the itch to ride, like I had a rash that wouldn't improve til I did. I finally moved back south for good, almost 10 years ago. And while I'm not fond of the humidity, I'll take it any day, over being stuck (literally and figuratively). Now, if only it were that easy to fix this out-of-control gas gouging, going on in this country. These corporations can't possibly be feeling the trickle from Egypt yet, and yet, the gas pricing says they are gonna reem us, BIG TIME. It's time we got off this freakin' oil bandwagon. We need to switch to bio-fuel. The sooner the better. Either that, or forgo the cages altogether, and ride exclusively. Hard to carry the groceries that way. But for some of us, it may be eat or ride. I don't know about ya'll, but I smell something brewing...and it ain't coffee. Smells more like a revolt. Just sayin...

    Getting some real nice weather down here lately. Been in the low 70s in the middle of the day. Still a little chilly in the morning, so I'm still wearing the chaps and winter gloves on the way to work. I sure does feel nice to ride with just a long sleeve on the weekends though!!!!

    Hope all the rest of you are having nice weather too... or at least expecting some real soon!

    Yep we always have rining weather here - except for the monsoons!

    cool bike azkidtx, you gonna bring it home?

    I was thinking about it but don’t know. Talk with customs and its going to be a pain in the ass. No gas no oil and will pay more in tax to GOV then the bike is worth. Then won’t be able to get parts for it back home. Innless one of you knows were a Kavir dealer is in the states. LOL

    Great weekend out in the desert watching some spring baseball but started to get some rain on the way home today but all in all a nice weekend. I don't mind the rain if it isn't too cold and the idiot drivers around me don't panic and drive like dumbasses. Is it too much to ask for one of my teams the Chargers or the Padres to win a championship while I'm still young enough to remember it.

    Still a little cold here 40s and maybe low 50s during the day, but the roads are dry so we are riding. Just wish we didn't have to be all bundled up!

    Is wet and windy in TX. The T-storm season is upon us. Going to have to check for more than just temps for a while. Watch out for twisters.

    It's always riding season here, rain and all.

    It's in the 40's in the morning but by this afternoon we should see some low 80's. Riding weather for some, but I'm still seeing to much sand and gravel for me to be comfortable....but it is New Hampshire.  Happy Spring all!

    StreetBobGirl, I know what you mean but I can't take it any longer and have called to get mine out of storage this weekend when the temperatures drop back to normal. Mine stored in NH also and I'll drive it back to Mass Saturday.

    So does everyone have riding weather this year yet, or a few still waiting for the snow and ice to melt?
