Winter time just makes the Summer all the more sweeter.
I was able to get out yesterday for a after work ride! Tonight is also looking great for a ride. I'm taking tomorrow off work to go riding.

Absence make the heart grow fonder!

I'll post a pic once the sun come up.

We had a string of unseasonably warm (60+ degree F) days here in northern Utah recently so I took out my GSXR 750 for a spin up in the mountains. Believe it or not it was about 55 degrees when this pic was taken.

You have a choice. The west coast isn't completely full... almost, but we're not being bodily pushed into the ocean by the crowds yet.

This pic is from my ride up into the Salt River Canyon in Az.
Having just returned from a trip to Arizona, Utah and Colorado, I can now show some pics of the beautiful scenery I got to ride through. Too bad I am not good with photos but this might help to prove I really was there.

And this is the reason I went to Arizona. I don't like snow after I have see more than a inch of it.

And of course, the obligatory finding of one of Mesa's finest BBQ joints. This one is Waldo's. Yummmm. I highly recommend it if you are in the area.

This is loaded and ready to escape the snow and cold.

After a weekend of maintenance: new oil/filter, valve check, new throttle cable, new choke cable, finally got out for a ride this afternoon. Haven’t ridden since Christmas Day. Still lots of snow in the higher elevations, but it warmed up nicely today.
Thanks, Bob. I took one (or a dozen) for pic of week, will post in a bit. But I like this one too.
Thanks for posting.
Okay, now we can belive you Larry.
Looks good.
Good to see that you are getting out, Trev
(that you are doing well enough to get out
Not neglected any more, I see.
You took that shiney clean bike down that road, on purpose?

I took that pic from that side of the bike, from that angle, to make the road look worse than it actually was. But, yeah, I don?t worry about my bike getting dirty. I do, however, try to stay out of the slush.
same road:
Ah.. . . .
Longer ride today. About 4 hours. Was barley 50 when departed. Abit over 60 upon return.
Great.
Stopped along road to watch a little creek.
Had the idea that I was watching winter melt away.
Rode into Newaygo. Beef Jerky and cream cheese dip and crackers from the jerky store, made something of a picnic on a park bench.
Stopped along the river. Was some people out in small boats.
Swing by beach to look for clouds on horizon that might efect the sunset. Still ice on pier and lake.
Definatly different than a couple weeks ago.
Snow in forecast next week.

I know that road very well indeed. As for barbecue, you missed out: You should have gone to Jalapeno Buck's. Nestled right in an orange grove, amazing barbecue and Tex-Mex.
Should hit 50'F today, it was 19'F on my ride in this morning, god I miss doing this everyday!
Yesterday the FZ6 passed State inspection with flying colors. The $1500 Commuter is running superbly and is fit as a fiddle and ready to fly for the season.
More snow is moving in this weekend and we might slip back into the winter time suck. At least I'll get a few solid days of riding!
