    Fun thread tho some need to look up the word "hibernation." :lol2

    My 2 sporting steeds rest comfortably in a spare bedroom each winter.

    And no, it doesn't mean I don't ride. You're more than welcome to look in my sig line for some fun filled winter riding on my studded tire KLR. :ricky

    Warmest regards from way up in the far and frozen north, Mello Moto Marko :wink:

    Got up to almost 40 degrees today, so things softened up enough for me to chop a path through the ice and take the bike out for some tag-o-rama.

    But all good things must come to end. Soon enough it was nap time for the bike again, so it rejoined it's friends the canoe and the kayaks in their dorm room.

    250R = SWEET!
    Death on three wheels; mine hurt everyone that got on it except me.

    I can't tell you how many times I heard "yeah, I know. I have been riding motorcycles for years; I'll be fine"!

    She never actually "hibernates" as we get the occasional break from the cold and snow. Our carport has never had my car in it.

    Some peoples garages are way to tidy:D, thanks to the rest for making me feel better:rofl

    There she is in the back ground, on the charger and pointed out ready for milder weather. The snow missle takes its place at this time of year, heading out on her in an hour:clap

    You are supposed to attach the snow blower to the FRONT of the bike!!! It won't do you much good back there!

    My garage. CBR 1000 RR Repsol in the back waiting for spring and the Dakar bike rebuild in the front. This was the bike I attempted the 2010 Dakar on, it's a 2006 525 XC-W with a Meca systems kit fitted by Rally Pan AM. My boy, Cooper is getting ready to ride on his sweet 3 wheeler.

    Notice the green lawn. Ahh... the West(wet) Coast.
