Default Anyone still riding? How about today?

I was eating my grilledcheese this morning and found myself thinking back to the ride where i met MO for the first time who, as you know lives on grilledcheese. I though, 'hmmmm, i wounder if anyone is still out riding in this wonderful weather?'

If anyone wants to go for a ride let me know within about 2 hrs. I am thinking of getting lost in western WI.

I went for a ride yesterday. Today, unfortunately, I'm stuck at work. Have fun riding.

We are prepping the bikes for storage today :'(

That usually kicks off the winter coping mechanisms. Like firing up the PS2 and playing Tourist Trophy. Or going to the garage and working on the racebike...or watching the Valencia round today (last race and Pedrobot may finish ahead of Rossi in the championship )

So to whomever goes riding...enjoy!

I went already... yesterday and today... perfect out! Motors are really sharp in that cool air!
I rode until mid December last year, and had it back out in late March. No need for Stabil, just the charger... haha... (I did use Stabil tho)

I actually did exactly that yesterday. Getting lost in western WI, that is.
It's way too cold today, though.

Just be careful out there, everybody.

About 10 days ago, my wife's uncle dumped his pristine Ducati ST4s (see a pic here) -- he hit a patch of wet leaves as he was riding through a neighborhood and slid into some guy's yard. Physically, he's fine, but the plastic's all scuffed up on the rt side of his bike and it'll probably need a new Rt side saddlebag. :-\

Wet leaves are as slippery as a pool of grease on the road... >

I just got back. ;D Bike runs great in the crisp dry air. I am hoping for a mild winter and an earily spring, as I am sure all of you Ducati nuts are thinking the same thing as I am. Till spring, Chow [thumbsup]

I rode this weekend for a while. Perfect riding weather (with an aerostich and a thin fleece).
Here's hoping next weekend is just as nice.
