I do honestly feel for you folks living in the colder parts of the country. I complain when the temp drops below 40, I guess I should be grateful.

Most of Wisconsin (except near Lake Superior) doesnt get hammered with the snow that say....New York gets, but we usually have a few days where the high temp of the day is below zero, and the lows are around -40. I dont care how thick your blood is, thats damn cold.

Just dont try opening a car door bare handed. No way you are going to be able to let go.

Did Wilcoy share his adventure with everyone? I was asking how the C5 worked in cold weather and he had just gone grocery shopping in 11 degree weather with his Wing!!

aw heck im just old and cranky. should just be blessed the house is warm

 

[joedrum]

well rain today .. so some of the snow is finally melting and washing away ... but it looks like it wont be heavy enough to clear it all and will refreeze like a sheet of glass ...but maybe we will get enough rain I hope so ..

When I built my hot tub room the outside door was 36" wide, so I just measured about 6" above the handlebars and got out the Sawzall and cut right through the door jam and posts, I built extra vertical studs in that wall. took off the door and the section of wall and rode the Wing right into the house.
Now i have a 4 foot door to my man cave but the ramp into it was in bad shape and I dropped the bike trying to get in so thats why I changed direction and decided to raise the empty hot tub on its side and to keep the wing in there, now I have my 95 Virago 750 in my man cave right behind my recliner as I type this.
