Mr. Riepe: What's wrong with little balls? Tiger Woods did OK with them. And I spent years with them playing table tennis. I was actually on Penn State's Team that played in the National Team Championship at Cobo Hall in Detroit in 1976. Little balls were everywhere.

When it comes to BMWs they have a lot of little nuts.

Charlie6: I saw another URAL in town on Sunday -- the Gear-Up version. Kissell Motorsports must have sold another. It was brand new with a brave rider dealing with the cold air.

I have a Vespa. No need for a URAL.

You need a Vespa.

Bryce: My darkroom is out of commission due to a failed O ring in a mixing valve. I've not put on my plumbers hat yet to fix it and get the water running again.

I'm feeling lazy and happy that the darkroom is closed!

Thomas Keene: Junior isn't the perfect dog. He has taken to sneaking into the bedroom and snoozing the day away on the king-sized Tempur-pedic bed.

And if you catch him in the act he acts like everything is as it should be.

Allen Madding: I wish I could teach Junior to check the oil and air pressure. For some reason I just hate doing that task…

David Masse: It certainly is one of the challenges. I hate not riding only to find out the weather report was wrong and it is a nice day.

So far I haven't been stranded but perhaps I should have been.

Ride safe in the frozen north!

Dear Sir:

I know of no BMW rider who has any first-hand experience of little balls.

I remain,

Perhaps we should revisit that Ural.....that barn-door-like fairing cuts a lot of the cold wind off your body.

You're fortunate to have a dog to provide indications that riding should be avoided. My indoor cats couldn't care less if I'm home or on the road.

In fact, on especially cold days, they seem to push me out the door, then fight over the chair I've warmed up, in their minds, for them.
