    Got the bike out and rode yesterday. It was cold, but I'm looking forward to those high 40* days we're supposed to have this week.

    Re: When to de-winterize this year

    Big difference in 50 miles north, I haven't seen bees come out of my hive in a couple months, its warmer than normal, good sugarn weather below freezing at night above in the day, sap will run

    I'm still gonna keep my studded front tire a few more weeks, frost is still 2 feet into the ground in uninsulated areas(usually 4') mud season is likely to be short, not much frost to come out, not much snow & ice to soak in.
