I had to put away all my toys for the winter.
Isn't this the saddest thing...

Why did you have to do that?
I just connect the battery tender on mine so I can take it out any time. (weather permitting and no salt on the roads)

Me too, Dean. I like to start her up at least once a week and drive her in decent weather.

Why? You live in Reno. There are plenty of good weather days there during the winter. :beers:

They probably get road salt there though, that's always a bummer. You're better off to just park it in a dry spot for the whole winter
Winter????..have you seen Buffalo in the last 2 weeks?? now that's winter..You just get a little nippy..that's all...lol:beers:
Yep! And they use 15% salt, 30% gravel, 35% wood chips, and 20% coal ash in the mixture! They had to drop the percentage of salt because it was killing the trees at Lake Tahoe. Add expensive paint and cold weather with lows in the 20's with highs in the low to mid 30's during the winter.... I have the heater installed but no lines run so it gets very cold in the winter at 5100 feet.
I was surprised we got everything to fit into a two car garage; in the picture is the '67 Cougar, Camino, My Tri-Glide, and my CT 70 and Z50 and I only had to move the tool chest to the shied so the rear of the Harley would fit. The wife said we could do it and she was right; I won't doubt her again until next week....
Normally we store the Harley at the dealership but they raised the fee's from $350 to $450 this year and that's for only four months!!

Man, that must really bite. I have no such issues, well we do but its not bad. It has been raining here the past couple weeks. Good thing i can handle the cold cause i am usually out there working on our rides in 30-40 degree weather, as long as there is no rain or too cold and windy. I know its not much for you guys up north but many folks here can't handle that -unless they have to for their jobs. Driving them is no issue at all except for the rain, i'd rather not get them wet.

Doing it all wrong.
If you live in a climate that changes dramatically with the seasons, you need to have toys for all seasons. :yes:

I tried mounting skis on the Camino but didn't have much luck. The skis would spin and hit the back of the tailgate, lucky I had Currie rear-end so that both skis would hit at the same time and let me know I had a problem with traction….
