I've been riding year round. >.> Only to/from class though. The warmer weather is definitely welcome though.. although I wouldn't mind waiting for the hotter weather that is soon to come.

Probably not. Only let guys I know and I know how they ride, to roll on my bikes. At point, the only person I clear to ride my bikes anytime is my BIL. Then some times cave.

Get rid of that windshield on the Nightster.
I know I know... but it helps in the 40* or sub 40* mornings. Plus I haven't callused up my riding vagina yet...

got about 60 miles in yesterday, roads actualy werent too bad, very little sand/debris (all that rain def helped) and just the random potholes to watch in addition to brain dead drivers.

Weathers going to get a bit crummy again here. I need to finish the steering bearrings on the futura and swap a rearset, then get the bike inspected. The buell will need fresh oil once I start riding it regualrly, then its time to enjoy the high gas prices.

I've ridden a very small amount so far. It seems that I'm always unavailable on the nice days, but when I have free time, the weather sucks donkey balls.

It's not the bike, it's my pansy ass that isn't a fan of riding when it's below 50.
