I am not doing Quigley this year so I plan on arriving Wed/Thursday. Turnout should be interesting....but lots for me to see and do going to and fro.

Cool... I can't wait to get back on the road... seems like forever.

Mountains of snow this winter - may be a while before I get my first ride in. Really looking forward to coming to South Dakota!

You have to lock the out house?

My plan is to go to the museum at Dubois WY before going to Spearfish this year. Then I’ll head towards Casper, Newcastle and Spearfish.

Our winter has been the mildest ever. The deer ticks have been out for several weeks now. Hardly any snow here but the ground is frozen. I just hope that Old Man Winter doesn’t make up his lost snowstorms in April and May.

I'm planning on being at the KOA there on my way to Spearfish.. not sure of the timing, will let you know when I'm sure maybe we can meet up. Otherwise, will see you at SF.

Your GPS must have gone south. Dubois WY isn’t exactly on the way to Spearfish for you. But I understand. I once went from CO to MI by way of CA. I get it.

I'm expecting winter to hang on like autumn did. But I'm a pessimist.

Aww, c’mon man. That’s our well house, not an outhouse. Also has our deep freeze full of meat.

I'm gonna have to keep that GPS.. no need to upgrade.

It has been forever in Spokane.....we are just breaking into the 40s and then we go down again. Below freezing at night means black ice.

Maybe I shouldn't tell you I rode to work today in Minneapolis.

No fun...

It was 80 yesterday... the roses have started to bud last week and I thought it was too early but they know better than me.... 3 years ago we were frozen w/no power this part of Feb... so I'm not complaining...

Forecast for monday is 88.... wooohooo... I'm ready to start complaining about the heat again... I hate the cold.

 

[mikesim]

I went for a putt yesterday and the thermometer on the bike was reading 78° at the high point. Next week the mercury is forecast to hit 80°. I fear however that evrything will start blooming and a late frost will nip 'em.

Yeah.. kinda funny.. you really can't even use 1 lifetime to get any actual trend for the environment.. maybe not even 1,000 lifetimes... or a million.. lol
