Right now I live in a cold climate (Newfoundland Canada) like you describe. <br />I dream of retiremnt and heading down Souther to where one can ride all year. Knowing my bikes are there when the snow finally subsides is the only thing getting me through this winter. I hope you find an answer that allows you to keep riding and find a way to live comfortable.

Still giving me alot of grins per mile, cruising around on a very tight budget!<br /><br />All the best to you,<br />Scott in New Englandcoachscottmchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05186486909647444597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925658676971956300.post-60351181475364119672014-03-07T16:03:19.022-08:002014-03-07T16:03:19.022-08:00Brian:
