No winter so far, second straight year, at least I can ride
« on: January 25, 2015, 06:35:11 PM »
Except for the highest elevations most of the Sierra Nevada around here is dry, my place in Plumas County has had 2-3 inches of snow total and looking out the window it looks like summer. 61 today in Reno and anytime I can ride comfortably in January is a good day, problem is we're running out of water. A very weak system moves through Tuesday but we need a drastic reversal in Feb. and March to put a dent in this drought.

Buck..not much difference 518 miles to your east in Utah. Rode the V7 for the last 3 days...bike temp gauge said 52 today. We're between 4,300 and 4,600 feet in elevation in the valley. Almost no snow cover on the ground below 5,500. Spent part of today in the west desert target shooting in t-shirts...crazy weather!

Too bad that's not where it's needed, be safe.
