Default My fisrt ride of 2011

Its around 55 degrees here today, decided I'd take my first ride of this year, roads here still have salt/sand on them, so I kept more of a scouting the roads pace for the most part, hoping to ride more than I did last year!

That is all.....

55°!!! You should die now
It dipped overnight from high 30's mid 40's down to 11° this morning on ride into work.

I hate you and hope you get hit by a truck (not on the bike)

Glad you were able to get out even though I'm kind of jealous.
Would have been nice enough on Friday for me, but I didn't want to get salt and crap on it. I can wait patiently for April.

I went down the road and back on the bike to keep everything charged and cleared out.

I was able to do that because all of my freaking snow is gone

My first ride for 2011 was yesterday as well. Got out for about 2 hours. Around 55 degrees and the roads were ok...still wet in several areas from the overnight and early morning rain. We were just happy to get them out of the garage for a change...it's been close to a month between being busy or out of town for the holidays and the weather...yikes !!
