I had mine raised off the ground all winter on a 6" piece of wood.

Teeters nicely.

Doc, your not using your R* as a seesaw and making motorcycle noises to pass the winter time along, are you?

Sometimes I think "NORMAL is just a setting on a clothes dryer."

Rode 50 miles this afternoon as it was 60 and sunny here. Not rubbing it in, as this is the first decent day we've had in 2 weeks.

I can usually handle minus 20 pretty well to work in. But I really hate it when it gets down close to minus 50 below freezing out here! Good thing that only happens once-in-a-blue-moon! Freakin' cold I'll tell ya!
THat's when I think of a moving van and a compass, (trouble is the dang moving van probably wouldn't start. Even if it did start, it's frame and other metal parts would probably be so brittle they'd snap when I hit a bump gettin' outa here!) Mostly only get down to minus 40, but anything colder than minus 21 I try to stay inside. <br><br>Post edited by: StarMyram, at: 2007/02/08 20:00
