This won't even be a very long rant, but I am sick of fricken winter. I had my bike out only once in april and I'm pretty hard core for riding at any temp.....I live in Northern MN and this blows it will be in the 40's or 50's then rain and snow....If it doesn't change soon I'm going to get depressed.....Not to mention the fact I don't think that many people even know what a cafe/brat/tracker or any bike along those lines is.....guess we will see soon....There I'm done!!! Warm up already!!!

I feel your brother. I'm in the Twin Cities and this weather sucks!
 
Ha! I was talking to my neighbor this morning about the weather. He said "why do we even live here? I drive a semi truck, you work in a machine shop, I'm sure we could find similar jobs down south!"

I didn't even know what to say. Except this weather blows.
 
Yep. There's still a few inches on the ground from last night's storm here. Almost May, and I would think it's December for all I know.
 
Why do you live there? FL 80's and sunny. Been riding for weeks comfortably. Sorry I had to rub it in a little. I used to live western NY so I know what that weather is like. Instead of bitchin about for the rest of my life, I moved. ;D Glad I did too. This winter has been one of the worst.
 
NYC has been crazy lately... 80 one day, then 50 the next and raining... 57 today, just storms all week though... bleh

though it is fun racing the weather home ;)
 
Best day of the year so far today in Toronto. Didn't get to ride but enjoyed a Corona on a patio with friends and changed the oil in my 4-wheeler.
 
Temps are finally coming up in Cleveland with a forecast of rain with a chance of rain followed by thunderstorms with high winds. Did I mention rain?
 
I work as a sailing instructor and I can gladly say now have a lovely farmer's tan from the last 2 weeks of bright sun, above 80 degree weather and anywhere from 3kts of wind up to 18kts of wind.
Just sayin :)
 
guess I'm done whining.....It's finally 60F outside.....I need to charge up my battery and I'm off....!
 
yeah, rochester is forecasting rain and cold for the forseeable future... I mean, that's not really uncommon for here, we have fewer sunny days per year than seattle, but it's getting old at this point
 
We got 12" in the last 48hrs. And that"s on top of rain every day for a week. Two weeks ago the news guys were talking about the drought conditions. : )
