- March 30, 2014, 09:05:27 AMWe had a decent day yesterday and a lot of melting happening, which in effect means flooding all over the place, because I live on a small hill the water runs down my driveway into the backyard, so spent almost all afternoon cutting through about 4" of ice to create the Ratman canal system, seems to have worked will but my poor shoulders and arms are paying for it today.
On a good note I am just about got the bike all back together and close to riding. Just need to get the bike out of the house.........

- March 30, 2014, 09:02:59 AMYou talking about a ride? Is it nice enough today?
I was talking to another guy at the shop Friday. Customer/acquaintance/buddy of one of my techs. He has about a 2003 Indian and a newer HD, so whenever he comes in I usually talk to him a little about bikes. He turned me on to a guy that does leather seats nearby, but that's a different story...
ANYWAY, he was telling me he just went out and bought a complete heated suit and is looking at a modular/full-face helmet. Said he's tired of it being too cold to ride.... I'm not wanting to spend that kind of money on gear right now, so I'll just wait until it warms up and stops snowing. Which judging by recent weather may be a while...

- March 29, 2014, 16:38:28 PMGreat to see a member getting some fresh air time , Troll . I've still been unable to break free from this crazy weather . It's been raining since yesterday evening and is suppose to stop late Sunday night . The plus side to all this rain is the roads should be well cleaned off from all the sand and salt . Be safe Troll and man I'll tell ya , the more I see your seat set up the better it looks every time

- March 29, 2014, 16:03:05 PM I've been able to get out a few times this spring, but today was, by far, the best. 48 deg, and SUNSHINE!!!!! Took a little ride up the river, and out onto a no mans land between Wi. and Mn called Brice Prairie. Lots of ice on Lake Onalaska, and ice fishermen, too. I went south about a mile, and the channel is open, and there was a clown in a boat. I didn't get his picture, as I was riding around the park, and he took me by surprise...It's not beach weather, yet, but the river in front of the beach is mostly ice free.
Tomorrow is supposed to be 60 so I'm planning a little ride down to Lansing, Ia...

- March 24, 2014, 09:05:20 AMdon't know why there is all that complaining, they are doing the best they can......I too could be a weather man...
Today we will have periods of sun and cloud, followed by darkness and then the temps will be between 20*F and somewhere in the 30's perhaps soon to reach into the 40's so have your sun block ready just in case and we have a 50 50 chance of showers this week.
the 5 day forecast and the other day...
