| I rode to the next town with my Bandit tonight to the shop where I'll do my winter mods. The roads are mostly melted off, but what did melt refroze so there are many slick spots. I'm glad to say I survived.

| LOL. I'd be riding if it was that warm and the ice was off the roads.

34 degrees is d**n cold here. It was about 65 this morning on the ride in and currently in the mid 80's. The fun this morning came from the fog. Could only see about 200 feet ahead. But the good weather will be going away for a day or two. They are calling for it to get into the low 40's Saturday and Sunday night. | |

| Unfortunatly I can beat the 3 mph stories... I recently got my bike, and had been a bit worried at first about the weight. Turns out it wasn't such a big deal to handle. Then I was stopped in the garage, went to set it down and just then realized i hadn't put the kickstand all the way down. It slipped up and I went down trying to catch it. Would have been a scratch on it if there hadn't been a router table there. Got a small scrape just behind the pass seat. Everything else was fine.
