cabin fever!! 9 Months ago  
I'm Kingston Ontario, we've had the most snow in 20 years, but less than Ottawa. It friggin cold and we have about 6 weeks left before even thinking about bring the R* out---got to wait for all the salt to get washed off the roads by the spring rains too.

I go into pop rivets from time to time to visit my red machine but that's like going out on a 3rd date, getting drunk and not getting laid.BURP!

I'm on this site several times a day just to remind me has to what we have and at least I can still learn stuff about her. Thanks to all of you!!

I guess this is the definition of cabin fever.

Re:cabin fever!! 9 Months ago  
I feel your pain, and i am hatin' the cabin. I feel like I am on house arrest, except for GOING TO WORK. Seems i can't get out of that one. I haven't seen my Roadie since Thanksgiving day when I took it to my mother-in-laws for storage. I can only look at pictures and imaginge the sound of the engine thumping along while grinning wide.
Good luck w/ the weather. Sounds like ya need it.

Just went to the drug store on my roadie wearing a t-shirt (& other clothes too). Point is...no jacket and its Feb. God Bless Texas!!!



Although you guys do have my sympathies. I haven't seen snow in years and yes.....part of me misses it.

Part of you must be on crack. If I never seen snow again, it would be fine with me. Pretty cool to be riding in tee shirt weather in February. Some guys have all the luck.

Ready for this cold weather to be over! Can't wait until spring, have been out at least a couple of times a month I know what you are saying about the salt being still on the roads but when its dry I can't resist. Will be giving her a bath & body works asap.

Re:cabin fever!! 9 Months ago  
I feel for you Guys, it must be miserable to have all that Snow and Weather and knowing your Bike is stored and cannot Ride, that is what I like about the South down here, we have pretty mild Winters but do get Cold spells, we do get to get out at times and Ride, the temps did warm up to 70+ at times. I do not mean to rub it in or start anything, don't worry Guys it will get better. I work offshore for 2 weeks and the Bike stays stored while I am gone but look forward to it when I get in, I am home for 2 weeks also, Gotta Love it!

Re:cabin fever!! 9 Months ago  
Now guys those of us that get the good weather should not rub it in too much otherwise all those people will want to move to our areas!!!
I know come summer here I will have to put my bike away and ride in my air conditioned truck. Once it gets above 115 it's like riding in a convection oven. And we get that kind of heat from June to Sept. So there is a flip side to where some of us live. I know when it's around 70here I'm wearing my leather jacket cause it's cold!!
