New Year's Day Ride, Madison, WI

[cosmo]

Today, as I have two other times, I rode the 115 miles north to Madison, WI. for the annual New Year's Day ride, sponsored by Madison M/C.

My ride started at 8:30 am. I arrived at 'Inn On The Park' about 10:30. Temps were about 5ºF (-16ºC) upon arrival. The ride started at about Noon, for a 10 mile trek to the other side of Madison, Middleton, WI to be exact. Then lunch at Quaker Steak and Lube, wherein I had a wonderful Quesadilla Burger. And coffee. The restaurant was embellished with more motorcycle-oriented stuff, including near a dozen bikes hung from the ceiling. Fitting end to a (short) run.

Total for the day was 245 miles, and Tigger ran faultlessly, as if I even needed to say...

You, my friend have lost your mind!    I spent 5 1/2 years in Milwaukee, and it was the coldest times of my life.

You must also have great faith in the folks that de-ice the roads.  Here in the UK  I trust them so much that I never ride when it's below zero....

Thanks for sharing the ride and photos, it makes my last one feel like a spring ride.
