If It's Too Cold To Ride...

What to do, what to do, what to do??

Gather everyone together and have brunch!

Of course, it's always good to get together and kibbitz.  And a good way to sample everyone else's cooking too!! 

Sausage, potato casserole, green chili casserole, croissants, and a lovely egg, mushroom and cheese concoction that was yummylishous!  Add bloody marys, mimosas, coffee....Yummo!!

The best part are the people.  It was a good time to get together and visit, share stories, and laugh. 

Although I can't wait for riding season....it's close!

Keep The Shiny Side Up!

It's Still A Frozen Tundra Out There

I had time for a quick scoot last weekend.  Actually, I was putzing around the house doing chores and the bike was a callin'....Christine....Christine....Christine.

Although it was a little cool in the shade, the sun was shining and most definitely ridable.  So the decision for a quick ride around town was made!!  Yes!

Throw on gear, back the bike out of the garage and down the street I go.  As I pull out of the neighborhood, I look up at Pike's Peak....lo and behold it's pouring down rain!! 

Are you kidding me?!?!?!?

Colorado is known for its micro-weather.  Pouring down rain on one side of town and a mile or two down the road--it's dry as a bone.  Unfortunately for me, Murphy's Law is in play here--as I am out on the motorcycle, that rain cloud is headed directly at me. 

Ride was very short; about five miles.  Got a few rain splashes.

Oh well, I guess I should not complain.  I did get some wind therapy.

Today, it's very cold and there is a crazy ice fog. 

Not to good for ridin'!

Keep the shiny side up!
