Winter is being hard on me...

One minute I'm surfing around Chinariders and other bike sites, the next minute I'm looking at souped up Geo Metro's? Not sure if it's the Kokanee or the snow, but I can't wait for spring!

Cheers,
Stew

I hate to say this Stew, but winter doesn't even begin until December 21, which is still 18 days distant! :roll:

Amen! I am posting ride reports, and reminiscing about nicer weather. I fear we might be in store for a brutal winter. :( Have you seen my ride report from Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks? :?:

Winters are always long here, though we have had a week or so of unseasonably cold temps... I read all of your ride reports and love the pics, I have to say that your Zong looks right at home everywhere you photograph it... Your ride reports are a welcome respite from the cold and snow, please do keep them coming

Cheers,
Stew

Thank you, Stew. I took a two-day trip to Montana at the start of October; I will soon be posting a ride report on that trip.

Ah, boredom....
I had a '92 Metro. Drove it when I was doing home health visits. Got paid for mileage...that thing made me money...
50mpg highway and could get it into a 4 wheel drift on some of the curvy country roads round here...

We got our first snow today, hardly enough to cover the ground, i guess that is ok as i still need to get the parts so i can freshen up my snowmobile engine before the season begins.
See everyone just get yourself a sled and then you will look forward to winter as i do.

We had quite a bit of snow just in time for Son of Weldangrind's last HS football game, but there isn't a flake left now. :?
