Great videos. Only weather that isn't motorcycle weather is the ice.

Love it.

I saw one pull up to the gym one morning a couple of years back here in the dead of winter while it was snowing out. Thought the guy was nuts, :r

I was able to ride up to Lincolnton, Georgia for a weekend Gospel sing with my wife, dad, mom, and brother for the weekend. I rode the bike and they all rode in a car. Took five hours up and about four back. It was great. Could smell all the blooms and clean air.

I ride year round, but am looking forward to the nice weather. Especially with my first trackday of the year coming up in two weeks.:D

Right now the honeysuckle is popping all over VA. I love it when I am zipping past some woods, etc and it hits the nose. On the other hand, aint nothing quite like passing by a recent skunk road kill either. Praying you miss it with the bike.

I ride year round here. I think the only time I don't ride is in the snow.

I could quit riding just because its cold or raining but then I'd have to get a shrink and I hate Drs. My motorcycle is my sanity check. Besides I'll be a lot colder the day they put me in the ground. Ride while ya can.

Nothing like taking a long ride on a sunny day and can smell all of the good smells of nature,,,fresh cut grass, honeysuckle, etc. Be careful out there and ride defensively all the time.

I really like the second one. I have been digging bikes with sidecars lately.

Yep, which in WI gives us about 3 good solid months to ride.

Ride on brothers, ride on!

On my Roadstar I scrapped so much my Brothers hated riding with me. They always thought I was going down. Now days I can't go to far over as the pipes grind. They cost to much to be scraping. But nothing like throwing sparks up at night and checking out the chicken strip on the tires. I hate the trunk but it has to stay on until I fix the damaged left saddle bag.
