Or am I the only one chomping at the bit for a week of riding? :(

Only got out twice in Jan and once last month... Hope the snowfall is soon done.

On a bright note... with the help of ebay, I scored on a Griso seat and am modifying the seat pan and pillion foam as a solution to my wifes only complaint about riding with me. So far its going well & I hope to post step by step pics when done:)
 
Nope, you aren't ... haven't ridden since January 30th to be exact ...
 
Hooray:)
Yesterday was nice enough to catch a 130 mile loop... just far enough to warm things up (and doubling the sorry number of miles put on this year!)

Hopefully no more snow storms & I can start riding daily again
 
Well, somewhere between last Friday and this Monday evening, the cherry blossoms bloomed here.

You know what that means :whistle:
 
For instance. Which would lead to

sake admiration while consuming massive cherry bosoms

:silly:

(no, haven't even had my dose yet, tonight :wistle:)
 
Christ, I think this winter of 09/10 is going to be even longer!

I'v got a rope hanging from the rafters already, hope I can make it till March.

Guzzi is not even going to be at the IMS this year! :x
 
Seems like it! My bike's sitting here at work since the beginning of December, and it doesn't look like she'll move anytime soon, with the amount of snow around in the smaller streets :(

OTOH, I'd be thrilled if the sub-zero temps continue long enough to have some skatable natural ice at the country side B)

Ice Skating ! Don't you know that's dangerous you could fall! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
 
Yeah! Part of the fun, a nice slider! Also part of the fun: frozen nose, ears or toes and blistered heels! :silly:
 
Bump to the top here.
Actually the current winter seems to me to be easily eclipsing the winter of 2009 when this was written. We have now set a new record for total snowfall and number of days below zero here. Like many riders, I'm impatient to get on the Norge and go somewhere. Hope all is well for the other Guzzi riders out there.
