no Jeepin' for me today!!!
 
Damn straight. With temps supposed to be in the 70's and only a
slight chance of rain, I'm draggin' the Harley out and goin' for a
ride. I can Jeep when it rains or snows.

I feel for you :)
I have worked outside for the most part in the winters in -20 to -45
deg C weather for years.....it makes you and your vehicle tough.

warmer now -25 deg C.

It's a little warmer here than that, but we're about to pay for our (so
far) very mild winter starting late tonight.

Well, at least maybe now I'll get some local skiing in.

It didn't get quite as warm as they said it would, but it was perfect
for a nice 60-some mile winter(more spring-like than winter)ride...got
up to 71F or so. Still 67 at 7:45, but supposed to drop into the 50's
tomorrow and lower still on Monday.
Tried to go back and look for a geocache that I missed the first time
I looked for it, and missed it again today. Not supposed to be that
hard to find. Guess I'll have to get my son involved, he has better
luck than I do at actually locating the caches.

The only local skiing we have here in Arkansas involves boats and
large bodies of water...it's too cold for that too, right now.

You don't need a Harley to ride. My 74 Harley isn't anywhere near
reliable to ride in anything but the fairest of weather and it's only
got ~50k on it. The Kawasaki on the other hand (86 Police 1000) is the
one I ride in anything nature throws at me, anytime. With 125k on it and
no work on the motor, it's always going to be my 'go to' bike. Damn
thing's built better than my Jeeps are!

Well, my bike is surely reliable enough to ride in any weather that
I'd care to ride in, but since I have a Jeep too, when the temps drop
the Harley will stay in the shed and the Jeep will be my choice.
Since I hit 50 I've come to the conclusion that there are times to
ride a bike and times to drive the Jeep. Saturday, when the temps
were in the 70's was a time to ride the bike. Today, OTOH, when the
temp is 25F is a time to take the Jeep to work. No good reason I can
see to ride the bike 66 miles one way in this kind of weather.
