I can tell winter is going to suck somewhat, but today I was thinking it that in only two months, the weather would really start to change for the better. In the mean time, one thing I have been doing to nailing down my June bike tour plans out west. Just decided on a schedule and will book flights tomorrow. Last week I booked a campsite for a long Easter weekend tour from/to home before the place filled up.
