Cold weather:(

[Porkie]

Is anybody else out there tired of this Eskimo weather that we are getting??

I got my new Xciting 500 a few weeks ago and have only ridden 40 miles since then for fear of ice, snow and freezing to death!

It's 14 degrees now with a 5 degree wind chill factor in SW Missouri right now. it's supposed to be 2 degrees low tonight and if there's wind at all it will drop WAY below zero!

I was born and raised in Southern California and rode all year long!!

Stay warm.

It has been cold and snowy here. On top of that I have had a bad cold the last two weeks.
Got cabin fever real bad.
Looking forward to a warm, sunny ride.

ps: We are anxious to hear your review of the 500.

I'm tired of it because it started about 5-6 weeks earlier than normal..

I'm actually looking forward to complaining about the heat in July.

If we could put together a melt I'd be riding in a heartbeat. This winter we've gotten over 40" of snow and it's early Feb. normally we get 25" the entire year.

cabin fever sucks. Im thinking of a 2 stroke for my next scoot maybe a cobra.

Yep right now in central Texas its 22 degrees an windchill is suppose to be 8 degrees. Come on this is Texas not Alaska. We have been getting all 4 season every 3 days this is insane.

It's 5 degrees with a -6 wind chill factor and possibly flurries today!!!!!!!

Thank GOD for the internet or I'd go nuts:)

    I live in central New York (Syracuse), and we've had a lot of cold and snow also. I don't enjoy it, but can live with it. I have all wheel drive on my vehicles, a good snowblower, and the highway departments in central New York are very prepared to deal with the weather. Staying in for several months of cold weather is a pain in the a#^. Then I consider the tornados, earthquakes, wildfires and floods in other parts of the country, and it doesn't seem so bad. I guess the bottom line is that we can't change the weather, so short of moving, we have to deal with it.

I don't mind the cold or the snow on the roadside....just give me a little bit of clear roads!


Sunshine is great ....but not absolutely necessary! Cold is fine....but clear roads are necessary.

There have been days of clear roads - but had to work and snow was predicted for quitting time. So, no scooter.
Tried it twice and got caught in snow storm on the way home X 2- almost got nailed by a stupid F-150 because I was zeroed in too much on the road & snow. Lesson learned. I don't ride in traffic in the snow. One or the other - but not both.
Some day the world will look like this again.

Got a bad cold and didn't smoke for 3 days. Figured it was a good time to try. I actually carried a pack around with me for about a week before I just threw them in the trash.
