No riding this weekend

[YoDude]

Rain predicted for most of the weekend. It's a bit chilly, wet and very icky looking outside. Days are getting short again, cooling off quicker, not warming as much. With a little luck I might get in another couple weekends of riding before it's time to call the season done, just not this weekend.

Yo-

Aren't you out in Cali? I thought all year was riding season.

Aren't you out in Cali? I thought all year was riding season.

Yeah, well I could go riding, if I liked the cold weather and wet roads filled with cagers that freak out at the first drop of rain. I live in Nor Cal. Down in So Cal is where the riding weather is good almost all year long. Down there, there's about a month where it gets frosty over night and doesn't warm up much. I've ridden during that time, but I didn't like it much.

I don't have a windshield on my bike now, so I get all the air blast, getting wet with a strong wind isn't much fun especially if your stuff is soaked.

Also, I'm considerably older than I was when I did ride most all year long. I'm at a point in life where I don't like taking risks about getting sick or catching something. If I catch the flu these day, it could kill me, though it probably wouldn't, it is a possibility. I know they say you don't catch a cold or flu from just being out in cold weather. I don't think it helps you from not catching something either.

I'll stick to fair weather riding. It works best for me. I ride my bike for fun, not torture and I hate being cold.

I feel for ya bro Yo. High today here was only 76. Sunny, slight breeze. Ridiculous that I'm at work.

Rather be a fair weather rider than a NRMF. Just sayin.

Guess what!? They LIED! The sun is out and the weather is dry. Poked my head out the front door and there's not a cloud in sight! Haha, ya'll know what that means! Give it another hour to warm up a bit more and I'm goin' ridin'! :thumbup:

Yo- :big grin:

It was great riding this weekend in the Midwest. I didn't ride Saturday with my riding group because I had a granddaughter's birthday party to attend. I missed the best day. Darn...
Sunday was good but more wind. However, I did take a run for a few hours. Yippy!

[YoDude]

Good to hear at least a couple of us got out during the weekend! :thumbup:

They're predicting the weather to turn sour by next weekend

Oh I'm just teasing ol' Yo, don't be so protective. He a big boy. :big grin:

He's not the only fair weather rider.
