I need motorcycle therapy

Post by **yjleesvrr** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 2:15 pm

With real winter weather finally upon us, my lack of riding has me thinking about motorcycles throughout the day. I'm even dreaming about motorcycles and riding now! I'm beginning to think that I'm thinking about motorcycles more than women!

I can hack riding during daytime, but like most people I have to work during the day. Temperatures when the sun goes down is really cold these days, and we've been getting snow as of late as well. I don't relish all that salt getting into the nooks and crannies of my steeds.

I need to see a psychologist. This can't be healthy

You guys should all come down under and live in Oz.

I went for a midnight ride last night..full moon..warm..mesh jacket on..no wind...perfect..

Here's our weather forcast for the next few days.

I might just have to go down to the beach 'again' today...life it tough.

Do you want pictures or would that be rubbing it in too much..

Well Mike, DJ can gloat all year round. It never gets that cold Down Under.

So sorry, guys. But as Lyle Lovett says: "That's right. You're not from Texas."

I'm having withdrawls too. My shorter commute makes it harder to ride in the super cold, although I make myself some days. I'm really looking forward to warmer weather. At least daily temps above freezing!

I Agree...I've got the crawlies too. If I am not on Craigslist looking at bikes and gear, then I am on ebay pricing Honda 90's, then over to Sierra BMW ordering gear for my bike.
I email my bike buddies talking of trips will take and fun times we will share...later...during riding season. Aurgh!

February is the shortest month of the year but I think it takes the longest to pass. The world is stuck in one spot. It is 30 in the morning, 40 something in the day time. It is almost like 'why-bother' with the sun going up and down at all.

C'mon Springtime!
