struggling..is not the word. I couldnt tell you last time ive seen negative degree weather in Oklahoma. Not to mention theres been over a foot, or a foot of snow on the ground for 3..going on 4 weeks now. sh*ts evil. The indoor i posted, i havent been able to get to on the count of my good friend being really busy as of late..And when i do ride in my room, or the wash bay of my shop..All i can manage to get off is some time machines and half lashes to wall pushes *mainly putting holes in my bedroom/attic walls* sigh...

Flip sakes -18. The coldest it ever gets here is -5 (average about 12 degrees celcius in the winter). But on the flip side it gets up to 45 (average 37 degrees celcius) in summer. I can still ride in winter, but my hands get quite cold.

Snow is 7 feet high on both sides at the end of my driveway.  About 4 feet everywhere else.

-8C is about average I think.  -25C is quite possible at nights and sometimes during the day.

In nearly all the little towns around here there are buildings for sale, due to the wrecked economy.  They are going for cheap, too.  One has a real nice paved parking lot and it's a pole structure, I'd say 80x200 at least.  If I had the money I'd have an indoor spot without question!  I'd like to have something like that for everybody around here to ride in, but liability would probably put an end to that dream...

I got so fed up with the cold weather that I've spent the last two days cleaning and reorganizing the third floor of my house to make a spot to ride. It's tiny, but it'll do.
It truly is a romance of many dimensions, isn't it?
