I declare the Chicagoland Riding Season has begun!

Post by chicagorandy »

Brutal winter seems to have departed for a few weeks anyway and yesterday was severe clear, mild (50F) and sunny. I was NOT alone as I ventured around the area blowing out the engine cobwebs and cooties. Saw several other bikers in my travels.

Only the gods know if the snow and ice are gone till next winter, so I figured it best to get some miles under my keester while I could. Gonna head out again today and tomorrow to burn off some of this Seafoamed couple month old gas and replace it with fresh 89 octane.

Life is pretty good.

I agree winter is gone. Here in the Quad City area it is 60 degrees. Rode the bike to work today.

Hey there ChicagoRandy, today was another nice day for a ride. It's nice to see someone is around me with a Voyager! Hopefully our paths will cross one day this summer!

Let's just disregard that 5" of snow we got yesterday here near Midway Airport - hope still 'Springs' eternal for better ridin' weather.
