I grew up in Jamestown, NY, so I still remember what snow is. I've been to some mighty cold places in the last few years. Places like Greenland, Kyrgyzstan, and Korea. Bangor, Maine is the coldest place in the world where I'm concerned. But, it's a damp cold!

Here in the North Georgia mountains it's just above freezing. The sun is shining brightly and the pavement is dry. It's perfect if you have good cold weather gear.

Merry Christmas to all!

Speaking of cold weather, I remember a place called Labrador City. I spent a couple of months in Lab City, during February and March, back when I was just a youngster in my 20's. Temperature just hung around -55F, and that's without any wind chill factor. I think they were to scared to add in the wind chill factor. At that temperature it hurts to breathe

Its a heat wave to-day here in Calgary.......................+3C (37F).

I just got back from a ride in the pouring down snow LOL. Had to get the bike from a buddies house after I left it there at a Xmas party. Pretty cool, but pretty cold LOL

It's great to work eight hours outside at -20. I miss it! But I'll settle for being inside and warm.

I've never had any luck on snow. I can't handle even 1/16" of snow, at any speed. Just can't stay up.

We got trashed with an ice storm. Trees down and no power for 26 hours. Today, for Christmas it was 7F. I opened up our local Soup Kitchen and fed 44 people

Happy New Year everyone. Took a new years day ride up the coast from home past a place called Tiwi. Overcast day and nice and cool. I covered about 75 miles and got home just before it rained.

Wow pcoumbe THAT"S the way to spend new years day! Great bike, road, scenery. Thanks for the pics.
7AM new Years day here. A refreshing -20C and I am glad it has warmed up! We'll go cross country skiing. The wood stoves have been burning hard the last few weeks.

You live in a beautiful place. Great looking bike too.

Oh well, I guess I better go out and start up the snowblower.

 

[azman857]

I'll be heading out in a bit. Temp is about 50 now and supposted to be in the Sunny 70's later.

 

[pcoumbe]

When I use my snowblower I pretend that I am riding . At leat it has two wheels, a fourstroke engine , makes lots of noise, has handlebars ....... it will have to do until the weather gets better anyway .
