    After two months with extreme wheater conditions I opened my bike season 2021.
    In those two months I did some indoor "slow speed training" on my "indoor circuit" in my underground car park of my residential complex. - Some neighbours were surprised. ;-)

    The first outdoor ride on the 4th of February was a 150 km trip with temperatures from 2 to 14 degrees Celsius.
    For the next two weeks we had temperatures down to -20 degrees Celsius and lots of snow here in Austria and therefore I switched back to my "indoor circuit". On the 18th of February I started again and began with my rides to work with my TIGER 1200.
    Yesterday I did a 200 km ride through three federal states here in Austria. It was great.
    Best regards to all of you from Austria!

    Very very Jealous, Austria is my favorite place to ride, and I am dreaming of a post Covid time to return, and once again enjoy a coffee and cake at bikers point on the Grossglockner pass.
    My TEX is currently on the bench waiting for me to do the dreaded gear selector shaft mod, and hopefully fix the gearchange issues.
    Enjoy your spring outings!

    This was a spring outing a few years ago on my faithful green Tiger

    I had the same experiences as you in August 2020. It was great! It was my last journey with my Honda CB1100EX before I switched to my actual TRIUMPH. I love the alps!
