Snow & Ice fianlly melted

[admin]

Hooray! At last enough snow and ice melted off my drive for a ride. I live on dirt roads here in Missouri so I had a few mudholes to dodge- Sure felt great to be back in the wind after all the freezing cold. Ride safe God Bless

It's great isn't it? It was about 62 here in Tennessee yesterday so I went on about a 45 mile ride to blow the cobwebs out of the bike. It was so nice I could have rode 200 more but had other obligations. I can't wait for warm weather to come and stay! Yeehaw! Ride safe.

Northern va, in the tri-state area of va, md, and wv. It was upper 40s here last couple of days, but I'm 1/2 mile east of the blue ridge mountains, and we got hammered with 5" of snow, 4" of sleet, then 3/8" of ice 2 weeks ago. 6 miles east, there's hardly any snow left. My yard is still covered, but the ice is gone. How 'bout you?

Still cold, black ice and sand all over the roads in Connecticut this morning. Can't wait for Daytona in a week.

Damn, PANCHO, we'll have to get together. I think you guys
got more ice than we did. I've got the engine out of my electraglide, and will be tearing the bottom end down today. Wanted to go with s&s 96" kit, but have been cautioned about my cases (may have cracks). Are you familiar with Mountain Hog? Friend of mine use to race ahdra with a guy he called Pancho. Just curious. That wind was wicked. Had to stop posting from work- they're all upset about people doin' stuff with their computers. And a bunch of us ride, so I can only imagine what kinds of stuff was going on. Take care, ride careful, and stay in touch- we will ride sometime soon.
