    YES!!!!

    (though I'm sorry about the sunburn. shoulders always seem to take it, and the tops of knees)

    Up until last week I could be heard saying "You know, I find that I really don't mind the weather this spring."

    It was the OTHER yellow speaking, I'm sure of it.

    Warm and sunny in Lincoln, Nebraska. Of course, I have stuff that absolutely needs to be done inside today.

    You might try going out for a short ride, just to let the weather gods know that they can't intimidate the likes of you. It works.....eventually.

    Sunny and warm-ish in Montreal, Quebec. I'm logging off work to hop on my bike!

    Well, after months of rain, including ALL day yesterday, I can actually see some blue sky out here on the N. Ca. coast, so here's hoping it is headed your way. Supposed to actually be warm and sunny this weekend.

    I wonder if the silence from Kim and V is not a good sign. They're directly in our weather path. Please tell us good stuff. I can see a patch of blue sky again.

    OK, a good thing -- I can see one of those huge rust-colored dragonflies outside my window. They are a harbinger of summer for me. I feel much better now.

    It's been sunny and warm so far this week here in Atlanta. I rode after work on Mon & Wed. The forecast for this afternoon is for scattered showers. Right now, it's sunny and 80 in my part of town and the radar looks pretty clear so I'm crossing my fingers for a ride tonight too.

    I am in Gainesville Georgia north of Atlanta and it has been very nice lately. It did rain out my ride Sunday. I have been having horrible allergies this season though so I have to dope myself with Allegra or something before I leave on a ride and I curse everyone cutting there grass as I pass by!

    I'm hoping Nuthatch will post that there is sun in her corner of the world. It would make my day to know that there truly is sunshine somewhere close to my neighborhood. We've endured a week of below normal temperatures - wind and clouds. I'm starting to lose my sense of humor not to mention the fact that my weather triggered migraines have been niggling their way into my world ...

    There - I feel so much better for venting!

    Thanks ladies

    It's me again Yellow.......

    remember me?...the one that lives in New Mexico the Land of Enchantment??...where yes, it's gorgeous, sunny, not a cloud in the sky - even the moutains have a slight blue tinge to them today. My lunchtime ride it was 81 with winds NNW @ 7. The predicted high today is supposed to be 95 but ya know our humidity is well...in the single digits most days!

    Am I helping any hun??
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    Hey, y'know, when mine were acting up a few months back I thought those allergy meds were affecting my performance, as in having a "positive" effect. Hmmmmm...maybe there is something to this performance enhancing substance thing. But then of course I think of Red Bull and Crank e-gel as performance enhancing substances as well, at least for me!
