It's a sad day
Today I took a ride and as much as the changing leaves were a nice back drop it was cold as hell. I had a nice traction issue when I hit some wet leaves and realized I have to ride more conservative. Ahhh it's over, almost time to winterize and call it quits, maybe a couple of rides left when the weather is mild but that's it. Racing is over almost two more GP's left. I hate winter. Just venting maybe I'll move to California and start growing weed  .

I knew you Cali guys would bust my balls  . I envy you guys I used to like the snow when I was snow boarding. After a wife and two kids now all I do is shovel it out of my driveway. If I have a bad back from shoveling snow can I get a medical marijuana license for that if I move to Cali? You guys got the life awesome roads, tracks, weed , Arnold. I'm jealous.

I was in the east coast(PA) and now I moved to Central America. I can't stand the snow, I feel your pain. That is not an issue for me anymore. The weather is amazing here like 70s all the time because we're getting the cold winds from the north. There are also some nice mountains and curves here but people drive like crazy, no respect. Beer cost less here too.
