What you gain by learning to ride in the wet you can lose in the inability to concentrate on learning.<br /><br />If it wasn't for the snow and short riding season I'd move over there. Maybe Prineville or Lapine.<br /><br />Katie uses the short riding season against me whenever I do threaten to move. I hate the constant rain here. Katie wants to stay close to her family.<br /><br />Now that Ryan is here somehow my threats to move have diminished. Weird.<br /><br />Take care,<br /><br />Danirondadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17821323482397075170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20666162.post-59616450644601092452011-04-11T19:51:54.574-07:002011-04-11T19:51:54.574-07:00Sonja,

At least not where our students can see us.<br /><br />Seriously, safety is an understandably huge consideration for our students.<br /><br />I'm glad you liked the chain analogy.

Opportunity to get some coaching in rain soaked corners and all that. Nah, I waited for fair weather and dry parking lots. <br /><br />Bravo to the students and instructors! That looks very cold! Especially on Sunday. I'm surprised you were able to get it in shape with all that white stuff falling. <br /><br />Pretty scene of the Deschutes. I love central Oregon scenery. I haven't gotten over that way (or eastern) nearly enough. I will wait for warmth and sunshine, and no chains required.Bluekathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13485258388887249275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20666162.post-75532577731958011622011-04-10T09:28:41.548-07:002011-04-10T09:28:41.548-07:00Bad words: snow, icy roads, cold temperatures, cha...Bad words: snow, icy roads, cold temperatures, chains...
