I feel your pain. Stupid snow. The Burgman needs the rear tire changed so thats down and I only ride the Zuma in nice weather with clean roads. So, even when (if?) the snow clears I still cant ride yet.

Well, the snow and cold gives you a taste of how it is to live in the far north, where the beloved scoot is put away for 5 months or so. You miss out on the long awaited spring day when it's time to get the scoot out again, put the battery in, and start her up. It's very exciting and the first ride is pure joy.

I'd post a picture of my '15 Hooligan sitting in the bright sunshine on this 70+ degree day in Tucson, AZ but knowing how bad it would make most of you feel, I won't!

The only thing I miss about Tucson was riding my Buddy. :)

So I guess it would be wrong for me to say I enjoyed my ride today in sunny sixty something degree weather...?

Looking at your picture I'd think you missed Tucson a little.

"The only thing I miss about Tucson was riding my Buddy"

I lived in Phoenix for 14 years and visited Tucson a lot.
Watching the first season of "Last Man on Earth" really made me miss Tucson.

I have ridden in Phoenix in the summer. I would definitely rather cope with riding in Portland in the winter (which I do :wink: ), than Phoenix in the summer. Now, if I could ride in Phoenix in the winter AND Portland in the summer.................

When you said saddest picture ever, I was really expecting to see a Buddy with the front stoved in or something.
