Default I rode!

well just like the title says. I finally got out to ride my bike! It snowed the day before and then it got sunny and about 42 degrees out and just looked perfect out, so i rode for about 30 minutes. I got back from my ride and i see the weather. We just got 2 inches last night and it's snowing right now. I am soo happy i got tha ride in. It has been itching at me everyday now.

It's been occasionally warm enought to ride here in WV, but I've left the bike winterized and put away. They use salt on the roads here and I don't want it all over the bike. I never ride in the Spring until after it's rained a couple of times.

600 miles seems like an easy task to lay down before the 4th.

We're slowly starting to get signs of spring coming. Nice highs for this time of year up into the mid 50's, but down to mid 20's at night. Since I'm working 3 to midnight my ride into work would be great, but the ride home would be brutal. *sigh*
I'll just have to go back to my late fall schedule of riding a couple hours before work.
