It was a chilly morning today (55 degrees) but 7 of us brave souls left at 9 AM for a 65 mile jaunt up to Cedar Key (Florida) for some lunch and sight seeing. It was a beautiful day not a cloud in the sky and a light breeze. here are some pics. Take heart, spring is a coming !

Our rides

Camera Hogs

Clammer docking with their catch

The catch in barrels

Lunch on upper level

I also put a few miles on the M today...it's still 55 degrees right now.

**Clint** · 01-25-2006, 07:55 PM

Yes. We do.

James_C50 · 01-25-2006, 07:58 PM

I must admit, I am not a fan of the look of saddlebags on the cruisers but yours looks GREAT with two tone that matches the bike! NICE!! First one I liked!

spanman · 01-25-2006, 09:47 PM

Nice looking iron you guys are on.It is a balmy 30 in ohio and we peck away on the computer talking about bikes and waiting for 45 degrees and the salt to wash off the road

tlwisner · 01-25-2006, 09:51 PM

Nice pictures. I did get to ride last week, but the weather is in the crapper this week....

Uechi Kid · 01-26-2006, 11:32 AM

Yah, you such.

IncubusIncarnate · 01-26-2006, 01:41 PM

God, i miss florida. But i am in the desert (Las Vegas) and it should warm up soon.

RampageRider · 01-26-2006, 01:47 PM

No, it's a balmy 55° and I just bought myself some SIDI Boots....

It's a great day to be riding in Iowa

Slim-Pickins · 01-26-2006, 01:47 PM

I was chicken today. I leave for work and it was 34 degrees and I'm fighting a cold so brought a "real cage" Jeep Wrangler to work but will ride tomorrow and it'll be 40 ish and high of 72 or so.

C50dreamin · 01-26-2006, 07:08 PM

I'm as southern as you but I still hate you cause I'm working nights. Started on Mon. and ends on Sun. and I won't commute the 70 miles one way home at midnight through deer and hog country. So once again sir YOU SUCK !!!

I'm Crushed.

MYC50T · 01-26-2006, 07:29 PM

Well even here in the "Frozen Minnesota" it reached 45° and I did ride today, 62 mi. worth, although 55° would have been nicer to ride in! nice camera hogs though

S2Design · 01-27-2006, 06:22 AM

Very nice Danr, looks like a great group ride.

That's OK...It just gave me some downtime to install the Straightshots that I had sitting in my garage along w/ the Thunder Monsters, K&N, and TFI that I just got in a couple days ago. Also it looks like Mon. and Tues. (my off days) are going to be clear skies and sunny weather, just right for riding...

**Clint** · 01-27-2006, 02:25 PM

It's nice here today, too (41 and sunny), but the roads are still icy, sloppy and sandy. I'll pass, I think. About six more weeks. I did see a bike out, though.

RampageRider · 01-27-2006, 02:57 PM

Well the temps reached 60° today and I feel for our northern breathern stuck in the slush, sand salt etc......

Oh this is Jaunuary right, feels more like March or April right now, even the trees are starting to bud out again.

Fishpart · 01-27-2006, 03:00 PM

3:00 pm here 38 degrees, man I'd love to be in florida right now.

DDADDYO · 02-02-2006, 05:44 PM

Danr, No hate from Indiana. I rode about 50 mi. yesterday, 25 today, and took my kids crotch rocket and beat it for about 10 mi. The weather has been about 25 deg. above normal for the entire month of Jan. (50's) Tonight it's back to reality, 20's & 30's!
Safe Ride Blessings,
Pat

**Clint** · 02-02-2006, 09:44 PM

Welcome, Pat. No need to yell, we all hear just fine.

BTW, your sig has two spelling errors.
