Nice Sunday after a week of bitter cold in NW Ohio
05 Feb 2019 15:51 - 05 Feb 2019 15:52
Very sunny and a record high last Sunday and I took full advantage of it after a week of record breaking cold. Took the 650 out for a 60 mile tour of the Maumee river. The picture was at a state park near Grand Rapids, Ohio. Only passed 1 other bike, anybody else make it out ?

3 days with the temp never over 0 F. -18 F Wed night, 58 F Sunday afternoon but cloudy and misty and it is headed for the single digits again tomorrow night.
Got out for a 25 mile ride Saturday, 52 F and sunny. Phil was right, spring is on the way.
I know, "No pictures, never happened" but I will remember.

Sounds like I’m just down the road from you (Sandusky area). All the bikes are still in hibernation but I did spend some time in the garage disassembling a pair of Z1R forks for restoration.

Jack, you guys are just far enough north of us to get "more winter" than us. We have been getting rain/freezing rain for the last couple of days. Main roads (well treated) are decent but get off the beaten path and they are slicker than snot.
