    hi all. i have been lurking on this board for quite a while and know a few of you.
    thought it was finally time to jump in and say hello.
    i am in michigan and am counting the days until the warm weather is here and the ice/snow is gone.
    don't take your weather for granted...:wave:

    Although many aspects of living in SoCal are overrated,
    the weather is one that's NOT. I know we're lucky to have warm days in March, and hopefully Spring is just around the corner for you! :)
    :welcome:from Laguna Beach!

    Welcome! I travel to Adrian, MI and Ann Arbor 3 to 4 times a year and I prefer being there in spring and fall.

    If you ever make it out to So Cal, come ride with us!

    I would love to - thanks for the offer!
    I live very close to Ann Arbor. There are a few excellent trails nearby. Look me up if you want to ride next time you are in Michigan. You can ride one of my rigs.
    I did some fantastic road rides in Los Alamos a few years back while working at a Jeep event. Never been on the mountainbike in Ca, though.

    :-k not a bad idea to give MI riding a try. That would be fun. I'll try to hit you up next time I am out there. God willing I won't be there until it warms up above 65°F. [-o-]

    STR invades Michigan? :?: Could be a fun, yet long road trip. Welcome and I remember those cold, wet days of the Midwest. Enjoy the ride and come for a visit...you may never leave.:wave:

    Michigan transplant here....But it was over 46 years ago we moved here. I've been back many times though and you can have all the white cold stuff that my cousins ride their snowmobile on. I'll take a mountain bike ride in 90 degree weather any day. I'll be in Traverse City next July (family reunion, again)
