Default Anybody been able to ride in this weather?

The Northwest isn't exactly prime location to own a sportbike. But I was able to take my CBR out today. I've got everything fixed. Replaced the frame sliders, handle grip, bar sliders, swingarm sliders, mirrors, and anything else that caught a little damage. Boy did it feel good riding again. Despite the fact that it was so cold that I was completely numb. Hah. The only other things to do in my spare time are play Modern Warfare 2, take vicodin, and sleep.

How are you guys holding up in this weather? Oh, and happy Thanksgiving/Black Friday.

I hear that! I dropped all of the bikes' insurances and put the money towards living!

Congrats on the ride time

Yep, the life of a single, 19 year old warehouse worker. Simple and easy. I'm enjoying it.
