Default Finally!

Got out on the bike a few times over christmas weekend!!

Yes, it was chilly, but it was sunny and dry so I was riding. LoL! I saw at least 5 fellow riders when I was out on saturday, and a few on sunday, so I wasn't the only idiot riding on two wheels in the 40 degree weather. The only part that sucked was heading toward monroe on hwy 522. I came up on a section that curves to the right and looked like it was completely iced up. Riding over that gave me the 'stomach in my throat' feeling, but I just backed off the throttle and didnt give a crap how many cars behind me had to slow down. Other than that, it was a blast!

Being out on the bike the day after christmas this year is definitely a stark contrast to the same time last year when I had 5 foot snow drifts surrounding my house and could hardly get my car outta my driveway without throwing the tire chains on..

Yeah.. 2 wheelers definitely aren't something for pansies.
