Also, march is going to be anywhere from 25 degrees to 75 degrees depending on where you are, what time of the month, and what time of the day.

25? it was 8 this morning.

There is no spring in VA.

So, did you guys make it to Va? I was up on the BRP with my wife today, just cruising along in the Tdi and was caught and blasted by 4 GS riders about 8 miles south of 250. I was turning into an overlook and didn't see what tags were on the bikes.
Whoever it was, it was a great day for a ride. Figured it was a cool small-world story if it was you Canadians.

yep me made it up to front royal sunday night and wanted to ride a little that night but the entrance to the shanandoah national park was blocked off by troopers (some kinda shooting or something) so we entered the park the next morning. fabulous weather and great ride...lots of gravel but still nice..made it to the blue ridge parkway around noonish.. and rode all day, 26 degrees at some point

stoped at otter lake for a bit and just enjoyed the scenery and the weather...being a brand new rider this was easily the highlight of my short riding career...we did cross paths with a few riders..and yep we were probably the four gs riders....one of us did have a small collision with a partrige but both rider and partrige were ok...thanks for the weather and our much needed break from winter...its was -14 celcius here last night

..will try and post some pics soon....

and I was just wondering what the average weather temp and conditions are around that time????? Trying to figure out how much and what to pack.

Jeez, that's like asking about what mood my ex would be in.

Most of the time she's fine, but one week out of the month she's a total bitch.

It's just luck as to when you want to go down there.

I mean, ride down here.

I kept thinking over the last few days you guys should have come on down. I was glad to see you made it. I know it was a little chilly in the early morning but other than that it was a great time to ride.
Let us know when you come back, you know we are all angling for a return favor of a trip to Canada.
