    Well we're supposed to get some snow here tonight and tomorrow. Not really looking forward to it either but if everything goes according to current plans, I have only 48 weeks left to work so hopefully next year I'll be able to ignore the snow warnings. Yep, snow tonight and then just this past Saturday we had a poker run for the Veterans. Had a good ride even though the temp had already began to fall. I had to cut it short due to the bite of the cold wind as I'm still working on getting my immune sytem back up to par.Had about 20 or more bikes. One guy had his grandson in his side car and the interesting thing about his side car was that even though the car stayed vertical, his bike leaned normally. Looked a little odd.

    Same here, Saturday was a pretty decent day, better than predicted. Did a charity ride for American Cancer Society down to Lake Lure and back. Spitting snow now, down to freezing. But, gonna get back up to 60s by Saturday! :)

    It was 70 today, suppose to work its way back up to the 80's this week and hold it threw this weekend.
    I'm glad cause the Lone Star Rally starts Thursday and last threw sunday
