The Baron in Winter

26 December, 2005 Temperature: 33 degrees F

`Twas the day after Christmas, and all through the town

Hardy souls were out riding their motorbikes around

The skies were quite cloudy, there was a chill in the air

But we rode like children, without a worry or care

Through downtown Minneapolis, and on into Saint Paul

On roads free of ice, with no traffic at all

We stopped once for coffee, at Betty’s Bikes and Buns

Then we jumped back on our bikes, to have some more fun

There was Mark on his Transalp, and me on the Baron

We raced through the `Cities, with much skill and darin’

Too soon it was over, we both had to go home

Back to our wives and children, who miss us when we roam

But we promised each other, as we parted ways

That we would do this again, one of these fine winter days

So now I’m back home, with my girls by my side

Seasons Greetings to All, and to All a Good Ride!
