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,

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.

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.

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.
