Coldest 55 degree ever, felt more like 35
I decided to take all bikes out to charge the batteries and get the oil hot.
The CB and V Strom got their pictures made but it was too cold by the time the sun was setting to snap a quick one of the BMW

Very nice, mscb. I know those "feels colder than it is" days very well.

As a disclaimer, I want y'all to know I'm a Kansas farm boy. Transplanted to Albuquerque, New Mexico.

I rode around today and took photos of our two local 'rivers'. First is the mighty Rio Grande:

It's purty shallow right now. Snow melt from the north will bring it up this spring. Wait a minute, we haven't had any snow yet down here!

We have cricks in Kansas bigger than this!

And this sign denotes the mighty Rio Puerco!

Yup, that's the Rio Puerco. Those are not ripples on the water's surface. Those are tire tracks in the sand.

Wow not a lot of water in that last one lol.

So how are the bars?

The bars are perfect! I have these same bars on my 850 T3, so I wasn't sailing in uncharted waters when I chose them for the CB. The grips (besides their fitting issues) are also just what I was looking for.

We've gone for over 90 days without any precip down here. That sets us up for forest fires this spring.

Nice pics 3rdbike Thumbs Up

Hoping NM gets some moisture soon. Fire season is starting to look pretty bad.

Got out to get some pics. I live in the SW Ohio hills. There are a number of creeks which flow from these hills down hill to the Ohio River. Creeks meander. Probably why we have so many curvy roads since the roads parallel the creeks. Anyhow here's a few from todays ride

also thought this was cool. Technically not a named creek but this waterfall froze thanks to 13 days in a row of below freezing temps

Only eight plus a waterfall? Slacker!

Some pretty cool names as well. Good job, ferret Biker

Bullskin creek didn't have a sign but it's also a major feeder creek for the Ohio
