In the famous words of Charlie Brown...

#1 Post by HeathersWheels »

In the famous words of Charlie Brown..."Arrgggh!!!" Oh my goodness if I cant get in a day of riding soon I'll, I'll, I dont know what I'll do. We get half a sunny day then it rains. Then a sunny day then three days rain. None of which jive up with days off work.

Rain rain go away...we want to ride today.

Today was supposed to rain here, but ended up being sunny. I was lucky enough to have to day off from work, so I took the opportunity to get some good riding time in. Felt really good to ride more than an hour in one shot 8)

Well that sucks.

I say if it's not absolutely pouring, then put on some long johns and thermals, plus rain gear, and ride anyway. As long as you're away from the psycho drivers whose IQ seems to drop precipitously when the rain comes, you might still have a good time.

My Ural thinks every day is ride day. I would just die if it actually snowed.

The weather is pretty much the same here in Elk Grove about 60 miles north of you. I feel about the same way. I have been keeping myslef busy installing little goodies on my bike. Some nice riding weather would be quite welcome.

We need to plan a Nor. Cal TMW meet and ride. BTW, Heather, welcome to the site.
