The good news is that I got to ride on Christmas eve, when it went up to 17 C. and on Christmas Day, when it went up to 8 degrees. :)
That is not sad at all.
That means there is less of a stretch until I am back on the road.
There were a few other bikes out as well, and the "biker waves" were a lot more heart-felt.
It was like sharing our giddy disbelief at our good luck.
Notice all of the green ?
That would be the absence of snow on December 24/25th.
Yay hydrocarbons, aerosol cans and eight cylinder vehicles!!!!!
Apparently my rant several years ago about all doing our part to get some global warming happening was not ignored.
It is nice to know that I can make a difference.
Aside from the amazing weather we had late in the season, I did a lot of good/great rides since August.
Mid September, Brent and I took the ferry across to Howe Island, which is between Kingston and Gananoque.
Definitely worth doing.
We debated dropping our helmets on the island...but we weren't sure if there would be cops ....there were not...we know for next time.
We did the Calabogie run a few times. It is always fun.
Below is our bikes at the lake in Calabogie in October.
I am saving up for some Vance and Hines mufflers....I cannot truly love a motorcycle that is as quiet as mine is.
I want them on for my 1st. ride of 2016.
Gotta renew my passport in time for Laconia in June...which I will not be missing this year.
I regret missing 2015... I should have gone by myself.
There is the motorcycle show in February which I go to with my brother in law.
I have the saddle bags off the bike...I want to get them all cleaned up and oiled for spring.
I'll keep you posted on any developments.
Hopefully the global warming thing will mean a freakishly early spring, and a long hot, dry summer!
