Roughy 12,000 this year so far. But I'm still riding. Rode to work today and it was 26degrees and windy!!! I'll probably squeeze in 13k before January.

I feel your pain, I only had 1800 or 1900. Didnt go on many long rides, just a bunch of commuting and short rides.

The beauty of living in a warm climate... I'm getting back on my SV in a couple of weeks. I couldn't exactly ride when I was pregnant and now that the little one is here, I'm itching to get back in the saddle. We took my bike down to a buddy last weekend for new fluids, filter, chain, etc. I don't care what the temp is when it's ready... I'm riding it home!

Thats exactly what I did. I rode almost every day...but work is only 8 miles round trip. Just didn't have time for many good runs. I made a few...went down to Maryland to ride with OTB and his crew and got out on my own a couple times. But not much...no track this year either.

Rode to work today.. it was a balmy 62 degrees, and is forcasted to get up to 80 today. Of course, it's going to be miserably cold the rest of the week, so I had to get some riding in while I could.

I did my two years in a cold climate (Germany). I live in Texas for a reason.

Its really not that bad actually...While I'd much prefer a Year round riding season I do happen to like the seasons...Winter should just be a month long not 3 to 4
Lol
