Well, if you look at the calendar Spring is here.

Of course if you live in FL, TX, S. Cal. or a few other places it never really went away.

Then there is the mid Atlantic, mid West, and Pacific Northwest where the riding season is interrupted by a few holidays and the Super Bowl, then carries on as before.

In the Rockies, Dakotas, NY, northern New England, the states keep their plows on until mid April, first of May depending, so Spring is just another date on the calendar.

And then there are our friends who live north of the 49th parallel up to the Artic Circle. Land of Denim Tuxedos and suspect Pop Stars, they seem to produce very hardy, dedicated motorcyclists in a place that can reasonably count their riding season in weeks.

Congratulations Dallas, your 84 V65 Magna is April's BOTM.

Hats off to you for riding and restoring up in Saskatchewan, Canada.

Its also noted that most of your info for restoring your bike came from reading on the Board.......Kudos.

I love all motorcycles.  Especially if they're a Honda.

It's pouring rain today. 63* outside. I was just thinking "damn I'm glad I didn't ride the Magna to work today". Reading this post made me think "damn I should have grown a pair and ridden the Magna to work today".

Super clean. Great pick.  :beer:

Nice clean Maggie, well deserving the honor  :thumb

Not to be a smart ass but is that post from 2005, and it looks like Dallas has not been on the board since 2014, does someone know this guy to let him know he won? Just sayin :dunno:

That is a nice specimen. All it needs is a round headlight and painted fender.  :rolling:
