Not So White Christmas

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!

It snowed a little bit last night, and then melted today..so no snow here, but it was still a pleasant Christmas.

Touched down yesterday morning from a nice trip in Hawaii.  There are so many scooters there, it's not even funny!!  I did have the pleasure to see my favorite bike, a BMW S1000RR.  Sounded great!!  I didn't see anyone wearing any gear though, just a helmet, and at most, a leather jacket or gloves.  Everyone else was in a tshirt and flip flops!  Was a great time anyways, I even got to go snorkeling and see a reef and all the marine life, which was a first for me.  It was a blast!

Came home, and started up the bike and car.  Both had no problems starting, though I did have to choke the bike to get it started.  Not an issue, it was cold in the garage so that was expected!

Enjoy your vacation!

There she goes...

Hi friends!

Sad news..my bike has been stored for the winter in my parents' garage, 100 miles away from me.  I know the temperatures are rideable for me, but the roads are too slippery, and often icy.  I just don't think the risk is worth it.  I hope to bring it out in March again, but we'll see.  Good news though, while riding season is over, the other riding season begins!  I will be going on a few snowboarding trips, so hopefully I can do some write ups on shredding during the winter season!

I do still have a short Annapolis ride to write up, so that will be coming later on.  Maybe once I get back from Hawaii!!!

Ride safe, if you are all still riding!!
