Winter blows but so does the rain...

I love warm weather... so much that if I had a job offer on the west coast I would sell everything on craigslist and get on the first flight out of here. Winter blows. You can't ride your bike, your car is constantly dirty from the snow/salt, everyone walks around all depressed because the only time we see the sun is when we're looking out our windows at work. You head to work and it's dark, you leave work and it's dark. You have so many layers on that even if you decided to ride your bike year round.. you would feel like a puff ball marshmallow! Well I do.

Today was beautiful! It was 86 degrees! Burning up on my gsxr600 and loving how shiny it gleams when the sun hit it. I put up a craigslist ad looking for another biker to ride with on whatever days our schedules match up and got a huge amount of responses. I was so relieved to see that I wasn't the only one that was looking for someone to ride short distance with and just shoot the breeze with. Unfortunately, since it's memorial weekend, it's also bike week and EVERYONE is gone or at family functions so I ended up riding by myself anyway lol It's cool, once the thunderstorms pass this week, I'll be lining up my calendar and getting as much riding in as I can. I have to work on my curves. I was coming home today on rt46 west and literally was 2 feet from slamming into the wall on a curve. I didn't see my life flash before me.. but i saw blood splattered on the wall and my mom killing me for taking that curve too fast if I didn't already die from it lol. I did manage to remember to hit my front brakes and miss that curve by a hairline. Wheww.. thus I definitely need to practice my curves and take notes from others. I excited to learn, but also nervous. I hope I'm not too slow for the more experienced riders. Hmm... we'll see...

time to put the bike up in the garage.. my baby doesn't see rain drops unless I get caught out in the rain unintentionally or my lazy behind forgot to cover her. Rode in the rain one time and if felt like someone was throwing mini knives at my skin.... it hurt!!! So you guys can have it.. i'm packing her up and putting my baby in the garage. See you when the sun comes out!
