    BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...... Us southern fried folk don't like that too much.

    That would be a great time for one of those old Coke commercials that started out with " we intterupt this winter to bring you the refreshing sounds of summer". Then they'd show the hot chicks in the bikinis down at the beach. Or course, anytime is a nice time for hot girls in bikinis.

    In my best Bill Clinton voice, "Wesly, how can I convince you I feel your pain?"

    That is the same storm that hir us here on Friday 02/28. We got 6-8" of the white stuff. Of course, that is also the day I got my tank back from being painted!! :roll:

    LOL Thats the front that hit us last thurday. we got 5 inches and lots of cold air. so brace yourself for some below zero temps. ours started 3 days ago

    Just a hint : The car sits out in the snow and the bike stays in the garage.
    If you can't use the garage get a cover . or get a storage shed. like the ones dad uses for his lawn mower

    I've said it before. I'm beginning to see why there are way more of these for sale above the Mason-Dixon than below it. Were expecting 80s this weekend. (Of course it will get down to the high 30s the next two nights first).

    Man! That weather is just not right. People here in the great pacific northwest whine about the rain. I think I'll save your pic on my BBerry for when the next SOB complains.

    ...at first glance I thought the collection was gonna be for a TRIP ..down south...I'll second that, as long as I get a ticket too!! :D While we didn't get the snow, we just went through 3 days of temps in the low single digits.. brrrr....
    The possibility of a job in So Cal is lookin better and better (except half my vehicles wouldn't pass their emissions tests i'm sure...) and I won't abandon my collection that easily... :wink:

    Thankfully, I put a tarp on mine, so while everything was closed yesterday, I had the family car, but with the world going again, I passed that up and got my XJ started and to work. That only took 40 min. to get the 12 blocks. I really wish Philly would learn from people up north how to salt and plow the streets, not just the big and easy ones.

    You have to give up your guns too Mad_Bohemian. The 3rd amendment is more of a 'guideline' on that side, or so I've read.

    There are few dramatic things to fear, here in the blessed state of PA. No earth quakes, no twisters, no great droughts, no 9 month winters.

    But knowing how good spring is makes the second half of winter TOUGH.

    Doesn't that just figure? I have a cover for it at my condo. This pick was at my buddy's house. We are getting the garage ready to bring it in and replace 2nd gear that has been slipping all last riding season. Keep an eye out for pics.
