Shout-out to Mainers!

Tired of all the cold snowy $hit yet?:angry2:

I'm ready to ride already!!

Hey Safire Eyes,

Im not from Maine, but I too am sick of the cold weather. Us Maryland'ers feel your pain.

No one had replied to your post, so I thought I would throw you a bone.

Here is hoping for the weather to break soon,

Take care, Chris:hug:

By the way, sweet First Gen. Me likey. :headbang:

Hey, I thought you were moving. Weren't you supposed to be in TN by now? :)

HAHA Yeah that was the plan anyway... hopefully this summer! I would have ALOT more miles on the bike if I was there... but instead we are getting 6-10 more inches of snow today... yippee! ...............grrrrrr...............

But yeah hopefully we can sell our house come spring and head to dragon country!

Ouch. I thought I had it bad here in Jersey. At least it's not snowing... yet.

I'm a Mainer ready for for some riding weather! I have ridden twice this year so far. But most of the time I just open the garage door, start up the bike, and sit on it dreaming it was a warm sunny day :) What part of Maine are you from?

Dedham. Just east of Bangor.
Yeah I can't even do that because of the additional 20" of snow we got yesterday!

I used to live in Exeter, just west of Bangor :) I just bought a Jeep from a guy in Ellsworth. So it looks like 45* and sunny Saturday! My bike is prepped and ready to go! :)

Hi SafireEyz, I'm not a Mainer but CA weather can't be beat.

And your SV calendar pics are great! ;)

Thanks eddie, wasn't prepared with great pics this year but next I'll be ready!;)
I was in NH this past weekend where it was 60 and motorcycles were everywhere... pulling mine out this weekend for some tinkering! yippeeee;D

Well it is currently 9f here In Minneapolis and it snowed today. The heavy wet kind. I want to ride.........

Mainer here!! Things are looking up, maybe winter is finally behind us. Might get the bike out for a spin this week.

Doyou Mainers (or winter state people) keep insurance all year long on your bikes? I take it down to comp only in the winter, so I wait to put it back on in the spring so I am not paying for the weeks I can't ride, due to sudden unexpected snow storms and drops in temps to the single digits! Should be 50 by the end of the week though! :D

I drop my insurance completely when I put it away for the Winter. I have been out a couple times already. With temps over 40* and the sun shining, I'm riding. The highway is a little brisk at 80mph and the frost heaves and sandy side roads are a little scary but cruising the main roads is perfect right now.

My bike is filthy and the garden hose is still frozen so hopefully I can clean it soon. :)

10* more degrees and the tops coming off the Jeep! lol

Hell yeah! I can't wait for the Jeep season too... Bikini tops rock! ;)

rode to work last week for the first time this year. even the 60 miles on the slab was welcome after this long, cold, drawn out, winter. hopefully i'll get more fun rides than commuting this year.

I wish I would have rode to work today! I definately will tomorrow.

I need to wash my bike tonight though, it is filthy.

The Jeep got a nice workout this weekend with a half day trip through the snowmobile trails, through a pond, and across a river, lol!

The top is still on though. :'(

Another Mainer here, I have had the bike out several times already, but its still really sandy and temps arent high enough to do any real sport riding.

What part of Maine are you in SVeeTwin?

Hubby took the Buell in today at 29° still too cold for this chicka! Maybe this afternoon tho :D

I've been back to commuting on the bike for 3 weeks now, except for the real rainy days. (Rain gear over winter gear is just TOO much hassle.) I waited until the first day of spring, just because my driveway was a soggy mess. It was a toasty 60 degrees on the way home last night. :)

hey george good to see that you're out and about. unfortunately for me work has required that i bring my truck to topsham daily so the bike has sat idle the last couple of weeks.

Yeah, I moved down to Scarborough, so I can't check up on you every day anymore. Hopefully we can find a day this summer and take a ride up to the mountains again. :)

We should plan a Maine SV(and others) ride this year?

I am from Bangor...

Nice we will have to go for a ride sometime. Friend and Friend is having their annual meet at Jordans the first week in May maybe we will see you there!

Can summa-folk join in? I'm up on Peaks Island (north Jersey the rest of the time). I'm definitely bringing the bike up for Memorial Day - anyone be in the Portland area then?

BTW - Calendar pix? How did I miss those? Can you post a link?

http://www.cafepress.com/Ranger02.336812684# This is my month :D

Great shots - how did I miss that one!?! So will my being "summer-folk" be held against me? I'm not a tourist, I swear...

haha nah I won't hold it against you we are used to it up here.... I am far from portland however... if you are in the Mt. Desert Island area let me know! :)

I will be at Jordans, they are doing a group ride from f&f in orono to ellsworth.

Awesome see you there.... I am on a red curvy.... my hubby will be on the Buell 1125r. I am riding in to work tomorrow, if I can bear the coldness in the AM :|
