    Help me make it until spring!

    Hey everyone, just signed up and wanted to introduce myself. Like the title says, I am looking for ways (aka, motorcycle-related distractions) to survive the winter. The bike is still operational and waiting patiently in the garage, so if another warm day hits here in southern Maine I will be on the street. In the mean time, looking forward to interacting with everyone, learning/sharing information, and having some fun.

    1. Buy dirt bike.
    2. Buy ice tires.
    3. Find someone else to mount them who doesn't know how hard they are to mount.
