Default How Dedicated Are U?

I know that some of you guys live where its warm all year long. But of those who don't, what is the coldest most extreme weather you have ridden in? Snow, ice, rain, hail, coldest temperature (farenheight)?

i rode in the rain for 2 1/2 hours and I was freezing cold when I got home.

I rode 5 hours non stop to syracuse in temps that didnt exceed 42. I left at 5 am before the sun was up. Only stopped for gas. I was chilled to the bone, BUT there was a hot tub at my destination! Other than that I have ridden on ice and several sub freezing commutes to work. Now that the roads are all salty and crap its not worht it anymore tho....

I have had to use my feet like skis in the snow.

3hrs non-stop except for gas in rain. There was so much rain, it got into the headlight assembly and filled up about 1/4 way. That's how I found out about a bad headlight seal.

I pass on the snow, and I try to pass on the rain as much as possible, but I rode to work the other day when it was 17F. It's only about a 15 minute ride but dang it was cold.
