Ozark Posted January 1, 2008 Share #14 Posted January 1, 2008 Twenty-nine degrees in Northeast Arkansas this morning. I just wish the doctor would okay riding today. I've been couped up in this house for two months. Short ride would definitely pick up my spirits. Oh well, spring is just around the corner. Hope to see much more of the group this year.

Dano Posted January 1, 2008 Share #15 Posted January 1, 2008 21 degrees, dusting snow, 30 mph winds---- I guess if I had skis on the bike I could give it a try-----, would be a VENTURE!!!!! Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yama Mama Posted January 1, 2008 Share #16 Posted January 1, 2008 Do not give up Froggie! The snow can melt and a big warm front could just blow into your area. That is what we are hoping for. Peggy:fingers-crossed-emo:snow2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brake Pad Posted January 1, 2008 Share #17 Posted January 1, 2008 The wife & I went out for breakfast this morning on the bike. Warm gentle breezes, The sun beating down on our faces, crystal clear blue skys. tooling down the back roads. Ah, live is good................ Temp In Miramar, Florida 81 degree's This is way I moved to Florida, 16 years ago. No more putting the bike away, no more shelveing snow, No dark gray skys for months at a time. I don't care theirs 4.1 million people in my county. I don't mind sharing the Sun Burns:stirthepot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmiles3 Posted January 2, 2008 Share #18 Posted January 2, 2008 Just back from a short ride. Had to meet my daughter to give her the new sticker for her tags. Only 10 miles; 27 degrees here tonight. Rode yesterday, in the 30's. Been riding on and off the whole month, except when the ice & snow were on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSV Angel Posted January 2, 2008 Share #19 Posted January 2, 2008 Out of respect for you Froggy I refrained from going on my traditional New years day ride. I didn't want to be one of those people who would rub in your face the fact that I was riding when you could not. ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' 'Not to mention I had to work and it was 25 here today and getting colder tomorrow! But I did it for you!

sarges46 Posted January 2, 2008 Share #21 Posted January 2, 2008 We (us and Marilyns family) spent the whole afternoon on the lake. Little brother brought out his quad and cleared a skating rink and we played a little hockey. Warmed up in the ice fishing shack.(the kids did) and did some tobogganing. It was a good day. Went back the their place for some hot chili and dogs plus some left over sweets! going to bed now....gotta work in the wee hours. Oh ya I forgot...it was minus 21c and windy...probably -28 ish....that is -brrrr for you southern folks! Happy New Year everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

86er Posted January 2, 2008 Share #23 Posted January 2, 2008 Well, Froggie, I rode to a New Year's Eve Party so I was able to ride at the end of '07 and the beginning of '08! It was a balmy 35 as I rode home in the morning! Tonight (Or, I guess last night) I rode to a friends to watch football. I leathered up to come home 'cause it had dropped to 25F. But even so..........IT WAS GREAT!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just-Jack Posted January 2, 2008 Share #24 Posted January 2, 2008 So the only riding that we did was to go over to the storage place and start the bike I would not attempt to ride with this much snow on the ground [ATTACH]14344[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]14345[/ATTACH] Maybe when the temps get up to 50 this weekend but you know how Michigan weather is wait 5 minutes it will change Have fun and be safe Jessie and Jack:2132: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double D Posted January 2, 2008 Share #25 Posted January 2, 2008 4 of us did a one hour ride on the first. Started out at 38 degrees but dropped to around 30 when we fininshed. Spitted snow for awhile but at least I got to ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
