Tremendous Weather

[No Worries]

Anyone else having great weather? Denver hit 76 degrees yesterday. Warmest in 137 years. Four days in a row over 70. We didn't get any snow in February, but the mountains got tons of snow. This winter we had at least 20 days with the temperature 60 or more. This type of weather is associated with La Nina. With all this riding weather, I can't get anything done.

[SteveP]

60's and sunny right now. :rockout:

I should be riding. But NOOOOOO, I have to wait for the Rooms 2 Go delivery truck :td:

[z06boy]

Had snow last weekend and a low of 15 this week.

Friday calls for 68

Saturday...75

Sunday...75


:rockout:

[Particle Man]

all I have is cold and crunchy grass and mud. :(

[Amorok]

Awesome weather today. 70 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. Rode to work, it'll probably take me a couple of hours to get home.

[Krabill]

Supposed to reach 86 here today.

I've got a bike camping trip scheduled for this weekend. Leaving right after work tomorrow.

[wildchild]

almost 50 today, we'll take it.

[the chi]

WTF? Im in florida and our high today is 67, and thats the warmest its been in days!

[Lucky3623]

86 today, 87 tomrrow... (posted highs)

[Fleck750]

75 today, 60's this weekend. Wind will be blowing 25mph, but am going for a ride anyway. 5 months of being locked in the cage is about to make me insane.:damn:

[Cutty72]

They are talking 35 today. I thought about getting Vader out for a ride tonight, but I have to fix the gf's car first... :panic:

[Trip]

75 this weekend, which is the perfect weather for riding. Not too hot and not cold.

[Archren]

80's today, looks like.. going up to OKC this weekend, Tracy and I are going riding. Forecast for that area is mid-70's. :rockwoot:

If you two are going to make it a long ride, head on over to Talimena Drive. Stop in the Taimena State Park Saturday night and hang out with us dirt bikers for the evening. Don't forget your tent :dthumb:

Sweet, thanks!!!

[Archren]

I still don't believe OK has hills. :lol:

The only turns that the roads out there make are the kind Tracy designs for highway offramps.

:nee:

You shall see the truth, and be healed, of your skepticism! :lol: Honestly, during the summer and fall the hills are at their most beautiful, and up in parts of Talimena the trees were so big they created tunnels through the mountains during the summer when they were in full leaf.

Watch it there snippy! :lol:

You need to watch the Bywayofmotorcycle Motoscavy again. I took video out there! Watch this link, go to the 3:00 minute mark of the segment, and you will see the hills that are along the Talimena Drive. Chi, I give you video! Just ignore my southern accent. :lol:

[Archren]

Yeah, we have that kind of riding in San Marcos at the Devil's Backbone.

You should see the Three Sisters (sometimes known as the Twisted Sisters) out by Leakey. :D It's got nothing on Deal's Gap, but it's pretty good for close to home. :dthumb:

I'll admit I don't really have time to look at *all* the pictures right now, but from what I did see, I don't think either of Tracy's bikes are suited for trail riding. :lol:

[Krabill]

I didn't mean for you to come ride with us, just hang out at camp in the evenings. There is the Talimena drive and the winding staircase close by that are marvelously twisty, paved roads through some beautiful mountain scenery. If you haven't been, you ough to check it out.

If we have time, we'll try to make it out. Although Tracy and I have plans to go shut down Bricktown Saturday night. :rockwoot:

[Krabill]

[the chi]

Thanks Krabill, awesome shots!! Maybe one day I'll make it that way again...

Great shots! :dthumb:

Wish I could ride today, but I'm driving back to Austin from OKC.

[njchopper87]

Man.. today gotta be the best day for riding so far and yet I lack the experience to ride to class. At least I have time to practice tomorrow.

well it's good you're taking it slow... be patient... don't rush... and you'll have more riding days ahead of you.

[Amorok]

Awesome weather yet again today, but I have to work at my fucking second job tonight so I'm in my car. Bullshit.

Oh well, they're paying for the rally this year, so whatever.

I thought about riding today, but I hit snooze about 5 times this morning, so I ended up jumping in the cage. Getting out of bed really just didn't seem like a good idea today. :lol:

[njchopper87]

I hear ya. When I stood up today it felt like I ran into a brick wall.. It's gorgeous out again though, and having skipped my speech class I'm about to go practice riding.

[Cutty72]

Great weather my ass.

Stuck at home in a blizzard that covers half the state.

Waaaah. I live in North Dakota and it's snowing. Waaah.

[Cutty72]

Waaaah. I live in North Dakota and it's snowing. Waaah.

some snow I can deal with. Snow and wind that shut down half the state is another thing total.

BUT, you won't see on CNN tonight that all the govt is coming to ND's rescue from this "natural disaster" and throw money at all of us as we dig out. No... this is not like living on the coast and getting hit by a hurricain. We chose to live here... Oh wait... so did they...

:leaving:

[Amorok]

Hey, I didn't choose to live there and I was stuck five years. And no, nobody's declaring it a disaster because that place sucks. Although I recall once about twelve years ago they did call it...

Those in Grand Forks got some help in 97 after the flood.
Nothing as national as the huricains EVERY YEAR in the south though.
