Understood.  

RW> Enthusiastic rider in that first year. Weren't we all?

Yes.  I'm a bit more picky about when I ride now, too.  I used to ride to
work on mornings that were at least 47 degrees.  I have since upped that
temp to the upper 50s.  :)  

Riding with frozen body parts isn't all that fun.

I'm one of those people that almost never wears a coat.  I did ride on New
Year's eve with my leather coat on - but it was in the upper 40s at the
time. I also had gloves on and my heated grips.

RW> Get on it and ride...

This weekend looks very promising.  In the 70s and nice.  I have the oil
changed, tire pressure checked, all systems are a go.
