Is it Spring yet?
12/14/04 at 05:10:06
 
Last night I walked out to the garage through about 2 inches of fresh snow to get something out of my car. It was maybe 28 degrees outside and windy. I couldn't stop myself! I had to sit on my bike! But I didn't make "vroom...vroom" noises! LMAO Winter has just begun and already spring fever has set in. It's going to be a long, cold wait till spring.... Sad

Understand the feeling. Here in Holland the weather is lousy: wet and cold, just above freezing temperature.

Can't wait untill spring.

I think of you as I do my daily commute in the early morning chill -- the low '50's.  Going home the temperature usually is starting to drop from the mid-'70's highs.  I've only driven the Camaro to work once in the last two months since I got my license.

SadWinter is settling in here in eastern Newfoundland ... after an unusually wet Fall ... Spring seems far off, but I console myself each morning with the realization that I am closer to Spring than I was yesterday ...

Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, just surrounded by arseholes!

I am in denial that it is winter here on the Nebraska plains.  Still riding to work most days, and last Sunday my son and I spent a enjoyable afternoon tooling around on our bikes - it was unseasonably warm, nearly 50 degrees.  

I only have a 6 mile commute each way, so it isn't too bad - and I'm learning how to dress for warmth with what I have in the closet.  And yearning for an Aerostich suit.

Actually, I am still riding because I'm too lazy to do all that stuff you're supposed to do to the bike to store it for the winter.

[edit]51 posts - I finally graduated from "newbie" status!

One of the reasons I moved to lovely Vancouver Island is that I can ride pretty much year-round here! Actually, it was a lifestyle thing but then I realized I could own a motorbike and actually USE the thing year-round! What a bonus. Sure, it is sometimes wet but I just wait for the right day and I'm off - even if it is only 5 deg C.

I decided against buying a motorbike when I lived in Calgary, Alberta, because I could not justify the expense for being able to ride only about 5 months out of the year.
