Topic: Winter
I hate January and February. I guess the older I get, the more I can’t tolerate cold temperatures. Plus, it cuts down on my “biker” time. In my part of the country, Tennessee, we have some of the most schizophrenic weather you will find. One day it could be 60 degrees, then the next day, 25. We could have snow overnight,that would melt away to a fifty degree day by afternoon. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments

Dodging the Roadkill: Layered Up To Throttle Up
Today was one of those days. I haven’t had “black beauty” out for a good run in over a week. On that day, the temps were in the low to mid fifties, but I was still trying to shake a bad cold and just didn’t feel it. This week, we’ve had rain, ice and some snow flurries, so the best I could do was fire up the “beast” and take it for a quick spin around the neighborhood. Not much, but it felt good. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments

Dodging the Roadkill: Riding With Old Man Winter
Living in the south presents a different kind of winter. We have days we can ride, but we might go weeks before we get a couple of days to do so. Some of the brothers and sisters I meet here live in parts of the country where the winters are BRUTAL! So what do we do during these cold winter months? «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: Winter Helps Me Appreciate Better Weather
For bikers, this the time of year we all dread. Having to park the motorcycle, winterize it, or whatever we need to do while we suffer through the frozen “hell” of limited riding opportunities. I think the beauty of being a biker is that we can mount up and take off anytime we damn well please, but old man winter reminds us, “no you can’t.” «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: Cabin Fever
It’s treacherous. My friends who actually LIVE in harsh winter weather, just sit back a chuckle at us southerners, and I don’t blame them. We’re just not built for this. That means I’m dealing with cabin fever. I’ve spent the entire day watching YouTube videos about motorcycles, motorcycle trips and various motorcycle infomercials. Now I want to ride. But can’t! «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
Dodging the Roadkill: Winter
WINTER! Now, depending on what part of the country you live in, this time of the year means something different to each of us. I live in Middle Tennessee, near the Kentucky border. Typically we don’t have too brutal of a winter, but there have been times when we don’t leave the house for a few days, much less, think about riding a motorcycle. I follow several social media groups where bikers who live in places like Chicago, or South Dakota and Wyoming, talk about “winterizing” their bike. I’ve seen pictures of bikers who live in extreme weather conditions and they have winters that I only see in the news. «Read the rest of this article» Sections: Commentary | No Comments
