winter has arrived in the UK

Dont know about you guys around the globe, but here in the UK winter has arrived with avengence. Went out on the bike at 7am from Norwich to Sudbury and the usual loon toons were out, you know the ones, those with blinkers on and wont give way. Anyway, with 30 to 40mph winds meaning that you have got to do some serious leaning, add the rain + vehicle spray = a miserable ride, then sunny in suffolk giving pink vision, so was glad to pull over to a roadside cafe. Once refreashed, the jouney home was a bit more enjoyable, that is until back in Norfolk, and hailstones, what a racket they make, thank god for helmets and good leathers. Anyway, what the weather like where you are? Need to expand my wings to warmer climates.

leathers in this weather ( I am from the Uk as well). MAN!! need goretex from top to toe. keeps the rain and wind off. I commute on my CBR600RR. It was cold today. think it was something like 4 degress when I was on my way home plus wind chill. My fingers nearly fell off. When winter sets in people cant drive properly anymore not that they could in the first place. fast lane hoggers that think they are fast. Filter blockers (people that deliberately drift in to make it harder for you to filter) and the rand om other dudes that just do random things.
Spring is here, don't you just luv spring!!! Mid 20's C, very dry, we actually desperatly need some rain, of coarse except when I'm out riding... Do you put the bike away for the winter?
