I am hoping to squeeze out 2 more months but we will see. I do need a few weeks of bad weather though so I can replace my fork springs and rear shock.

Halloween is usually when mine goes down for the count. Last year I stretched that out to Nov. 15th but I dont think it's going to be possible this year.

It was 38 degrees today, and it's supposed to snow.

Kell lives in the most southern part of canada. The rest of us actually experience the COLD. Not just the cold.

And would you look at that! The forecast for NJ says it's warmer at 4am for you by about 20 degrees than it is for me at noon.

Hey now! I don't have a garage so riding late in the season isn't practical since my bike has to sit outside!

But ya...I'm a huge wimp when it comes to the cold. I have heated grips on all year.
