Good morning all...
OK.. its snowing again in New England, its April Fools day, and there is not a sign of Spring or the upcoming riding season to be seen anywhere.... but there's still hope. In another thread we were talking about "why" we ride despite all the dangers, and the following link from the Tiwanese Bank illuminates another reason.... ( I think ? )

Happy April 1st everyone.......// Ernie in NH

Yeah Ernie,
Makes me want to ride even more- now if the SNOW WOULD STOP!!!!
BTW, the invite is open to you, Jim and anyone else around if you need to do any big work on your bike(s). My garage with the lift is available any time you want.
I could even pick you and your bike up.
John

Had 2 1/2 inches of the stuff at my house this morning. Hosting a bunch of riders tomorrow. Hope it is nicer than they are saying!

It's 95 here in Rancho Mirage and I'm sweating up a storm working on that K1 in the garage.

Hi all......
Statements like this :""It's 95 here in Rancho Mirage and I'm sweating up a storm working on that K1 in the garage.""
.... is what endears us North country folk to the west coasters !!
Have fun in the heat and ride safe ......// Ernie in NH

Yesterday it got up to 104. The garage was like a frickin' oven. 
I'd rather be in the cold where you can dress for the weather. Aside from wearing ice packs around you can't really protect yourself from the heat.
OTOH, not being able to ride kinda sucks.
