Default Great Weekend

It was a beautiful weekend on Long Island, almost felt warm enough to drop the top, it felt as though spring isn't far away. Whatever the ground hog did it worked, yes, yes

The weather around here was around 70* both Saturday and Sunday but this week temps are supposed to be highs in the 40s with the possibility of some snow. I have a feeling winter isn't ready to go away yet.

Weather was really nice here Saturday. I put 2 coats of Zaino on her in the morning then went for a cruise. Sunday was cloudy with a little rain here and there.

Spent the better part of Friday and Saturday afternoon installing my new BrakeMotive rotors and pads. Fairly straightforward job once I had the right tools, with the exception of those horrible caliper bracket bolts! Ended up breaking them free without a breaker bar. I wouldn't recommend it.

Snow on the way Tuesday. Winter strikes again.

Fantastic Saturday, 72 and not one cloud. Did some cruising to a favorite Winery on the Ohio River. Now watching the news and its going to Snow Thursday, 1 to 3 inches of the White crap expected.

Good to hear about warm weather on East coast in Feb. I would love to share some weather reports from SoCal but I fear the backlash. Had a great top-down weekend along the coast (make that West Coast). Enjoy while you can......
