Finally got some temps in the upper 40's low 50's. Rode a little over 100 miles today. Damn it felt good.

Actually unseasonably warm here in the Springs today. But I had to work...and besides, I still have a foot of snow blocking my bike in. :/

Audiogooroo - I live a hundred miles north of you and had a good ride today, over 100 miles including part of the Peak to Peak highway over 10,000 feet elv. You must have some elevation and or shade working against you. Got to build that shed in a sunnier spot.

You guessed it man. Shed faces north. :(
I could probably dig it out, but had to work today. Seems like every day off I get it's either snowing or brutally cold, yanno?

Cold and rained all day in the Phoenix area, which is rare. I suppose this should be a heads up to Albuquerque and Amarillo that rain may be coming their way.

Yesterday was a gorgeous 72 here, but I got stuck working all day and only managed maybe an hours ride just before sundown.

I don't really mind the cold during the winter it the damn salt and cinders on the roads that I dislike.
