Question So what's it going to take?

For you to get out there on your first ride this season?


I was waiting for a rain and finally did take my first run.

Clicky


You finishing up some mods or repairs?
Waiting on rain?
Testicals haven't dropped yet?
Higher temps?
Snow melt?
Muddy trail to bike storage location?


Provide pics as evidence in stating your case.

If the Canadians have started riding there is no excuse for anybody to not be riding.

It got into the 50s last sunday and I was ready to ride the ZR1100. I took my wife's jeep to the gas station to fill it and noticed the roads were full of all kinds of winter debris. I settled for just starting it.

It raining pretty good right now so that should clean all the shit off the roads. Probably wednesday for my first ride to work this year.

( I probably could ride tuesday but I shoot small bore rifle right after work and I think a gun case on the bike would draw attention to me )
