    Re: You might be a winter rider if...

    Winter officially begins today...

    So who rode?

    The weather site says 23 right now, I don't want to think about the wind chill when I rode to work this morning
    Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
    Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
    Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

    Absolutely.
    18 miles at 5:30 am.
    Beautiful weather.

    For some reason, people have been traveling SLOW the past two mornings.
    Luckily I'm packing 33hp of passing fury.

    I'm looking forward to reduced traffic the next couple of days.

    I'm in a similar boat. I'm only about 9 minutes away from the office, but that includes 2 exits on 470 so i've gotta debate if I wanna spend more time putting on & taking off gear than it will take to get to work, or if I wanna be completely numb from the waist down for the first 20 minutes of my workday
