Ain't no cure for the wintertime blues

The Super Glide sits in the garage -- unused, unriden and unavailable.

A foot of snow fell Friday night and Saturday -- the second major snowstorm of the season. Two ice storms also this year. Snow covers the roadways. The thermometer reads 14 degrees.

I ride in most kinds of weather -- even cold weaher -- but I draw the line when there's ice and snow on the road and there's been way too much of both since Dec. 18.

Bike week is three weeks away. I generally don't go to large rallies but the prospect of a week away from this madness is tempting.  I need to get out, to put miles on the Glide, to ride for a day and come home with a smile.

Ain't happening. Not with a foot of snow on the ground.

Damn I'm depressed.
