Default anyone getting good wind

We have had 6 solid days of good riding down here in Key West, although last week it was cold for us locals , but the Northeners did not mind, and it looks like we will get more wind today and then it might lighten up a bit.

This season has been terrible on the west coast. Fronts come through midweek and the wind doesnt hold for more than a day at most behind the front, sometimes just for a few hours. I was so spoiled by the seasons of 05 through o7 that allowed you to get out several times every week. I wanna move to the keys!!

pretty cool how you did that cracker! Tuesday was torture...all the boys and girls were at the whale ripping and I couldn't stand the pain of a harness...every season I seem to miss a chunk of good wind...I was just stuck in a hospital in tx with a gnarly pneumonia for over a week...lost 20lbs...it sucked! (I hear I missed the coldest wind of the year...thats cool)

Eat right and take care of yourselves!!!!

Sooooooo glad to be back!
