Well not quite spring here in NJ, but it is going up to low 50s this weekend. Should melt remaining snow. Looking forward to a ride and some of those spring feelings.

I've been on my bike every day for the past week. And this weekend is supposed to be close to 80 degrees. Looking forward to it!

Last weekend, Duke, Andy, and I went to Pinnacles National Park. Mid 70's and beautiful. I'm sure that I'll be out again this weekend. So Trapperdog, we should try to hook up and meet!

Tell me about it. I'm trying to be good, and let my hip heal and not get on bike prematurely. It's supposed to be in the 60's here on Saturday.... awful tempting.

When I planned this surgery I wasn't expecting the weather to be this nice this quick. I'll be good however don't want to jeopardize a setback now as good as I'm doing.

Thirty more days and it's going to be a different story.

Had to go back and look at the dates for this event. Being that it is in the later part of the month never can tell.

I need to start off slow don't want to take long trips until I see how the new joint likes riding. Keep your fingers crossed for me that it will be able to take the stock seat. I love the look, and have travelled many miles on it before operation. I'm just hoping that I'll still be able to do long distance on the stock seat.

We're pulling for you d00d! Hopefully you'll be ready. It's Apr. 20th. I personally, and I'm sure the others, are quite looking forward to meeting you.
And when I come down the BRP this May on the CVO Pick-up Ride, maybe we'll hit my friend's sister's restaurant outside Charlottesville! Be well d00d! Hoist!

Awful tempting today (and they are predicting 70's on Wednesday of this week).

Hey d00d, you're getting that hair up your a$$ to ride, huh?

Can't say as I blame you. It's 51 now, and I'm heading out for some well needed miles. If you're almost ready now, don't forget York on 4/20 and the CVO Pick-up Ride thru your neighborhood on 5/13 and 5/14! Hope to see you at one or both of these. We'll be going thru VA just before MBBW. Hopefully you'll be around for some of it!

Oh yea, didn't expect to be doing this good, this fast. With the weather getting nice it's awful tempting.

I see where you are going to be real close to me SLD/BRP, but I just have to wait and hear back from my friend in Wilmington who I usually go spend time w/during MBBW. When I find out his schedule (when he's going to have some time to ride) then I can figure out when I'm headed down there. If I'm here I'll definitely meet you guys somewhere north of here and ride at least the parkway with you.

Sounds good d00d. Look forward to you joining us. I'll add you to the list as a reminder. As I get more responses, I'll fine-tune the route and dates, so everyone knida knows where I'll be and when. Hoist!

Gary,
If you're going to MBBW, let me know. We'll head that way on Saturday the 12th (I think) and if you're going down that day, would enjoy the company. We stay in North Myrtle Beach, but can certainly side trip to Wilmington.

Glad to hear that you're doing so well! Just remember, baby steps. Don't want to have a setback.
