    No. That's not cold. -4 when I left home for work this morning, I took the cage rather than the bike and had to use 4WD to get out of our driveway. Yesterday's snow still hadn't thawed.

    Yeah you guys get real cold. We count the decades between snow falls here roughly so its normally not like this. I did enjoy the snow when I lived down South though.

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    You definitely got more snow on your side. Ours is all well melted now.

    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Feels like spring to me up here. Durring the day anyway.

    Wasn't that bad on the hill today. Slushy snow on the side of the road but not a lot on the road surface. Much more snow on the Wairarapa side, even though the wind was coming from the south. A few mates and I went over to Martinboro then out to (believe its called) White Rocks. (Out beyond the wind farm). Good gravel roads out to the coast. 1100GKs and FireStorms make a reasonable trail bikes, but not as good as the Pegaso or Funduro.
    The cafe (choc Fish?) is closed, anyone know if this is permanent?

    Didn't see any other bikes apart from us, but hordes of SUV shitboxes.
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    The Flying Fish in Martinborough closes for a month in winter to give the owners/staff a break. Should be open early-ish in July.

    Being frustrated is disagreeable.

    But the real disasters in life begin when you get what you want.
