Supposed to get 8-15 inches starting tonight.  Probably won't be doing any riding this weekend.

And that is why I don't miss living in the north. If I never see snow again it will be too soon.

walt,
You just gotta roll with the punches...
I covered the Red V last night under my carport.
Today I may make the 4WD ride up to the mtns in this storm to hit Winter Park Ski Resort for some late season snowboarding.  Still waiting to hear if the office is going to close for the day.

I rolled for 34 yrs, moved to Fl. for the job and didn't realize how much I hated snow until I didn't have to shovel it any more. I have seen snow maybe twice in the 26 yrs since and it wasn't enough to shovel.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!

Tiger, I wasn't thinking of hot snow ! ;D ;D ;D but it will snow at 32 deg. but many nights I had to do an emergency service call  and it was 25 below F. or worse . Snow can be fun , if you have a snow blower and a sled and its only 25 F. above. :D :D ;)

Yeah.... a blizzard isn't so bad when it all melts in two days and you go riding sunday (65 degrees), only to get wake up to more snow Monday morning.

The roads are clear now, if I wanted to ride around I could.

Gotta love it.

haha...63 degrees today...

except another winter storm moves in tonight and will drop about a foot of snow. 

Looks like this weekend will be spent snowboarding and not on 2 wheels.

Oh hey? Is this the whine about colorado weather thread?

I'm IN. So very tired of the snow. Looks like it might finally be over, getting rain in Boulder tonight...
Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere.

I don't mind the snow since I have a season pass to WP but I keep getting duped.

I've been trying top get out for a ride all week.. No luck. It's been great too.
Heck, I was scheeming about how to do a run last night after the kids went to bed, but my wife had me boxed into the back of the garage.

It's even nice today.. no rain yet. Still crap on the roads though.
