So, I also need someone to kick my derriere off the couch and computer

Years ago I used to ride Bergen County in cold, wind even snow but rain was a NO GO. Left the crappy NJ weather in '86 for more favorable winter conditions in SW FL. Have central AC on cause it's hot and humid right now at 85F heading to upper 80's maybe 90F. Hopping on bike to go to food store after posting.
