A telling pic from my Colorado ride last September 1 Year, 10 Months ago  
We complain when we can't ride for a couple weeks here in the south. This pic was shot of my bike the last week of September 07. It was 82 here in Ga. , by the time we got to southern Colorado, it was 36. 26 every morning. Here's what 26 looks like to a southerner! BB

Remember that episode of Seinfeld...." I was in the pool! ". I try and pass on freezing the "boys". BB

Let's just say I'm glad mine's garage kept here at home. Out there I had no choice, so it was what it was. Here my garage (and bikes) stay substantially warmer than the outside temps, so riding out from the house on a cool seat is much better than riding out on a frozen one! BB

Welcome to my world!!! You southern riders are big woosies .. It's supposed to get up to 45 this week. If my path thru the ice to the middle of the street is still there I'm riding. Of course it will probably be 20 for the ride home!!

Well, I'm not sure if I'm a Woosie or not (been called worse) , but it is a shock to ride out of the mid 80's into the mid 20's in a three day period. I do ride year round, but I will say, we don't have to deal with your temps and precip. very often, and for that I'm glad. OK, so I'm a woosie. BB
