Anyone ride today?

[Kappa03]

Just wondering if anyone rode to work or rode around today? Weather seems nice but not sure about the condition of the roads, sand etc..

Roads are fine down here in the tech center Was a nice ride in this morning.

[Kappa03]

Nice..
I work only 4 hours today, temp should be where it is now on the ride home which is about 4pm.

[MetaLord 9]

Rode in this morn'n! Roads were fine between Cherry Creek & Highlands Ranch. Watch out for the winds closer to the foothills. Didn't experience it myself, but I heard that it was rough.

[rforsythe]

Yep, was actually too warm on the way in. My gear has all the winter liners in it, which I'm finding is about right when the windchill is about 10-15 degrees.

The real question is, who's riding in tomorrow? :eyebrows:

I will be riding in tomorrow. Ice permitting. I have enough cold weather gear to climb Everest :)

[MetaLord 9]

Can't fit a snowboard on a motorcycle with all the gear, but I'll think of you when I'm flying down the mountain tomorrow!

[asp_125]

A bit gusty near the foothills along 93.. as usual.

[Gregger]

Windy as hell at my house.. Tempted to ride, but getting off at 2am, so I think the ride home may be snowy...

[Spiderman]

Ya, it was fine all the way from Parker to Boulder. My thermometer read 58 degrees outside temperature after the sun came up! :up:

Yeah, it almost feels like summer when you've only gotta put two or three layers on to ride! :lol:

[Devaclis]

Anyone riding to the Toad after work? mmm nice cold beer.

[Gregger]

Mmm...Riding and beer... Wait...That doesn't sound smart...lol :)

[MetaLord 9]

Mmm...Riding THEN beer THEN riding... Wait...That sounds like GENIUS!!! :)
fixed :D

[Gregger]

fixed :D

Nice fix0r.. For some reason, riding/beer still makes me cringe.. Oh, wait, I know why..Cause I'm a medic downtown and pick up drink MC crashes all the time. :drink:

Wish I could have rode today, but I don't think the cat would have appreciated it :lol:

[salsashark]

Nonsense... Cat's love the wind in the fur! It's exciting for them... :lol:

I got about three blocks from the house and regretted not riding today... I think I'll head home and get the bike, then go register for the toy ride

[MetaLord 9]

Wish I could have rode today, but I don't think the cat would have appreciated it :lol:
You ride without any pants on???? :wtf:

[Matty]

You ride without any pants on???? :wtf:
lol. you're a sick lil man.

[TFOGGuys]

Rode in today...damned breezy when I got here....better now....riding home in about an hour....

[CYCLE_MONKEY]

Rode in this morning, remembered I had a vacation day I had to use by the 12th, and.................called Scruff Dog.....and we went riding to Estes, then down 36 to Lyons where I bought him lunch for his birthday. Sat in the sun, enjoying a microbrew at Oskar Blues, then into Boulder, then just got back. Niiiiice! Only in Colorado!

[daemon]

rode around town today for about an hour after work.

doing it "poser" style with the full suit i bought off of spy007.

about all i'm gonna do for awhile.

i'm not really an all season rider.

[Jason ON]

Ran some errands on the bike today. Good times. Doubt I'll be riding tomorrow.

[dm_gsxr]

It was 55* or so out. Who _didn't_ ride?

Now tomorrow, that'll be an interesting morning ride :D

[Devaclis]

Yeah, there was a little ice this morning. The snow did not start until I got into DTC. Cold but not too bad. 11 when I left the house. Be safe out there peeps.

[CYCLE_MONKEY]

Update:

After posting the above, I rode home from Scruff's about 7:20......ito major winds, sleet, rain....and snow. think I barely made it home. Kinda scary doing 90 on Wilson/Taft Hill in that KNOWING that if I don't get home soon it will most likely freeze up on me....

Nothing in Longmont yet. Good ride in this morning. We'll see how it goes as the day goes on.

You're nutz :roll:
Sorry, they were surgically removed a few months ago.....:shocked::)

[Devaclis]

DTC Blvd from Dry Creek to Belleview going North is a solid sheet of black ice. I actually rode on the sidewalk/grass most of the way back to work. Cars were sliding all over the place.

[dm_gsxr]

Yea, I was looking at the weather report this morning and the Longmont/Broomfield corridor looked perfectly fine. A bit chilly, especially in the low spots but dry the whole way.

:wtf: I barely saw so much as a wet road on the way in today. Good to note though since that's usually a part of my anti-I25 route home.

Ended up not riding in today. My battery has been getting sluggish lately, and yesterday was acting up a little more than I'd like even in warm weather. I think the bike will remain parked until I can replace it, since I don't want <freezing temps to strand me somewhere. Push starting a heavy fuel injected bike on snow isn't really an option.

here kitty kitty.
better bundle that "cat" well this weekend, especially if it's groomed or one of them rare bald kitties.:cold:

[Kappa03]

Rider yesterday was nice, cold today, though I don't have to work. Supposed to snow but nothing here in Highlands ranch yet.

Anyone gettin snow?

[Gregger]

Very very light here in Broomfield.. Was doing it this AM when I left for Keystone, and it still is now... Looks like late tonight and tomorrow is the best shot..

[dm_gsxr]

Yep. Just rolled into Broomfield from Longmont. The snow was light in Longmont, basically went away on the way down and as I rolled down Lowell it picked up. The left onto 128th had snow getting pretty heavy (as in more, not fluffy).

Be careful out there.

Our finance director put away his Hyper, but he RODE IN TODAY (Thursday 12-4-08 ) on his DR200SE...in the snow/ice/shit.:shocked:

[TFOGGuys]

Hmmm.... got an XR100 here that has been done for a couple of weeks....maybe I need to "test ride" it in the snow....just to keep fresh fuel in the carb, you understand... :eyebrows:

[Devaclis]

I f had the right bike I would have rode in today. It is nice and brisk out there :)

[rforsythe]

I should really plate the XR400 for days like today. Roads are for sheep.

[FZRguy]

I got hammered on my MTB ride home late Friday night. It was fun but trashed my bike as snow packed into wheels, brakes, gears…spent Sunday overhauling it. Rode Monday/Tuesday…not riding today. :no:
