We got 3 1/2 " of heavy wet white shit on the ground. It snowed all day Sunday and well into the night. Weather is going to warm up this week. Hi 40s by Thursday. Maybe another hand off coming up?

That's something I ask myself everyday. I would say that St. Louis Blues hockey keeps me here, but that's not a very solid argument right now.

I think I need highs in the 50's for a 250 mile round trip , but the one day it's getting up there is Saturday and they're calling for 70 percent chance of rain :pinch:
Stay tuned,

Had my fingers crossed, but it's pretty much a repeat of last week.

Everyone deserves a many kudos for having brought the flag/relay as far as it has this year. I for one, wouldn't want to ride in the cold. Let alone in possible dangerous weather. The cold alone would take the fun out of it. The flag is in good hands and back home with the person who made it for the winter if it doesn't move until Spring. How much more fitting can it get, LOL? I can imagine the first nice Spring weekend day, with the excitement to get it moving again. When I lived in Michigan, taking the bike out from winter storage always felt like being reborn. Feeling the cool crisp Sunny Spring air as the bike comes to life and sprinting up and down the neighborhood street was refreshing.

I agree both my rides were barely 60 degrees wounded the fun factor a little the 50's are ok but not for 100+ miles great job so far guys we are gonna get some 70 degree days again in next couple months I'm hopin

I'm not ready to give up yet :dry:
If it is anything like last year , there will be a nice day here and there.
I need to move it along just so I can do a well deserved G.I. on the bike.
