I want to ride my bike!!.....

nealt · February 16th, 2011, 07:49 PM

Spring is so close now, i'm so anxious to get out...enough with the caging!..

.....this helps a little

jmgrande · February 16th, 2011, 07:54 PM

I am itching to ride so bad! This is probably the first week since December that is hasn't snowed or been 32 degrees and under.

Unfortunately I don't see any riding in the near future. The roads are so full of sand, dirt, and massive pot holes left from the plows.

scotty · February 16th, 2011, 07:57 PM

I got to ride today! It was in the high 50's today. Tomorrow is going to be even warmer!

warlord · February 16th, 2011, 08:20 PM

What's stopping you? I took mine for a ride today, and I'm planning to go out tomorrow too. There's still 2 feet of snow in my backyard but it's been in the 40's for the last couple of days and it's supposed to be in the 50's tomorrow.

Live2ride · February 16th, 2011, 08:20 PM

It got all the way up to 65 here on monday(Windy as hell though) , yesterday and today were around 55 or so, none of my friends have dewinterized their bikes yet so no riding for me

, that is, until I find a decent one for sale

dicer20 · February 16th, 2011, 08:54 PM

its getting warmer here in NY going to be 56 tomorrow and 62 on fri trying to get a few rides on both days...want to try my new helmet and gloves im working on getting my boots and knee guards but can't wait to ride

gogoKawi · February 16th, 2011, 09:23 PM

That video is hilarious! I will be on 2 wheels tomorrow and Friday. We still have salt on the roads. So I will be taking it easy.

Yasko · February 16th, 2011, 09:35 PM

+1 on the video...

mj23retired · February 16th, 2011, 09:46 PM

i have to brag here for a second. here in AZ it has been in the 70s the last few days. unfortunately i need to take my recently purchased used bike in for a routine (hopefully) maintenance and haven't been able to ride it...so i guess the joke is on me.

maviam1 · February 16th, 2011, 10:10 PM

this sucks, i dont get to ride mine for a year. i got stationed in korea, and i cant bring my bike over here.wont be back in the states till next year

fenwaynomar45 · February 16th, 2011, 11:06 PM

Planning on riding my bike for the first time in awhile tom. I work 1-10 should be beautiful at 1 but like 40 degrees at night. never rode in temp like that. thinking under armor, a hoodie and a jacket would keep me warm enough?

dyeforever · February 17th, 2011, 01:38 AM

Go ride. i ride everyday to work. it been nice in over here. hovering right around low 80's high 70's.

maxwellca21 · February 17th, 2011, 02:09 AM

i rode today...and 2 days before that. oh i also rode like 3 times last week up and down the mountain and cruise through some valley....yeah im trying to rub it in. you should move to southern california and punch me in the face. LOL

nealt · February 17th, 2011, 06:33 AM

I'm only good for about +3C/ 36F or so in the clothing dept. and they use a ton of salt on the roads up here. However it's supposed to get real warm tomorrow +10-12 C and it's so tempting.
The only thing holding me back is the salt and the drivers who are already blind on a good day, throw in winter and i'm probably really asking for trouble.....still.. ok maybe just a little vroom vroom around the neighborhood...

demp · February 17th, 2011, 06:37 AM

Where abouts you from Neil? I'm brumin' around t dot myself today

nealt · February 17th, 2011, 06:50 AM

Hey Demp, living in Brampton at the moment and working in Richmond Hill

JeffM · February 17th, 2011, 06:51 AM

This time of year is such a tease. last weekend it was in the upper 50's f. and I was able to get a couple rides in. This morning there is four inches of new snow.

Thanks for posting that video, Spring is just around the corner!

For sure, hopefully I get more time during the weekends. My mileage mainly comes from my commute across the city. PM me if you want to get out for a ride when the weather is more accomodating. If you hang out at all on GTAM you can PM me there as well.

SSR · March 18th, 2011, 04:19 PM

Rather than creating a new thread thought I'd just post in this one.

After 2 days of rain and + temperatures, most of the snow is gone. Threw my new battery in (my charger died and drained my old battery over the winter. grrr....), and the Ninja started up on the 4th/5th try. Gonna change the oil tomorrow and hopefully ride it to work next week if the weather co-operates!

Very excited!
