    Ok, girls. It's warm enough to ride today, so instead of hiding inside like a bunch of pussies why don't you get off your asses, dust off those bikes and take 'em out for a ride like a bunch of pussies...

    Did 200 miles yesterday. Just went out, and although I'm dressed the same as I was for 20* weather, its not nearly as comfortable at 40* with clouds, as it was at 20* and sunny. Did about 70 miles, basically bouncing back and forth between 91 and 5/10 to Northampton, then looped back up 9 to Hadley and took 47 home.

    still too much salt for me to be excited about a spirited street ride...

    ...on the other hand, the mini dirtbike gets ridden weekly and has been all winter

    Did about 170 today. Ran up to Motomarket for a cup of hot chocolate.

    Little cool, but a nice day for a ride.

    I got out for a bit today. All the fun roads out here are still covered in sand. Need a few good rain storms to clean them. I did get the inticial shake down done.. The suspension is close to dialed in. Im going to measure it hopefully this week with the computrack machine and make the nesesarry adjustments to it. I also need a new battery it seems as its not holding the mileage on the trip odometer.

    It was ne to get out for a bit and hopefully Ill have time to get out a few more times this week.

    I got out today for a short ride. I only did about 45 miles. My tires need air I think and I lost my guage so I need to get a new one. The roads were clean near me with the occasional patch of sand.

    do you have a helmet with a mohawk on it? we might've seen you

    We only put on ~35 miles today. It was great being back on the street, but not great riding through a waterpark.

    we first took the streetbikes for a ride around westborough, upton, and grafton...



    then the dirtbike on pavement...

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    Anyone riding today?

    I did a loop around the pond yesterday and scouted out conditions on some central NH roads

    Rt 171, dry, free of salt n sand, but frost heaves are a killer

    Rt 132 from New Hampton to Rt 127, wet, lot of salt n sand, otherwise good condition

    Rt 132 from Rt 127 to tilton, wet, lot of salt and even more sand, frost heaves are even worse

    Rt 140, dry, pretty much salt n sand free, moderate frost heaves

    Watch out for New Durham leo on Rt 11 and Gilmanton leo on Rt 140

    Yah.......that was me. I tried to find you guys, but I knew the odds were pretty slim. I headed towards Solomon Pond Mall but bared right just out of town, and came into the Mall the back way.

    One of my kids had a piece on display at the Worcester Art Museum so I just hopped on 290.

    I headed out again at 5:00.......south on Upton Rd. to the Milford Drive-In, and then Rte. 16 west.

    I might have gone to Moto Market until I read the post for Northborough. Not sure how many miles, but I did notice my Odometer ..........about 48,000.
