Just tell 'em your the "100K Iron Mang"

 

I ride everywhere all year longunless it rains. Wait it doesn't rain here in So Cal.

 

As long as it's not snowing, I plan on riding. It was misting this morning and looked like the bottomw was about to fall out and the director came in and I had my helmet and jacket on my desk, he said, "Where's your windshield wipers?"
I said, "What?"
"It's raining you big dummy!"
"So?"
"That boy aint got no sense," while leavingmy office shaking his head.


I was smart enough to be wearing proper gear when I wrecked and will never go without, no matter how short the trip.
Helmet, leather gloves, leather riding jacket, heavy jeans, 7" steel-toe work boots. Cold weather= layers.

 

Yeah, yeah, yeaaaaah...just rub it in why don't you! HAHA, just playing rrasco.

 

If I had the money I'd buy an extra swingarm for my F3 so I can make it a trike for the winter after the first snow. Not to mention it would be fun to have a F3 trike, expecially if I could put it back to normal in a day.

 

eh, in Colorado, i ride just if its warm....or no salt on the roads in the winter.....Otherwise, all summer long!

 

everyday all day as many days as possible..which since i dont own a car is everyday..YAY!!! and it definately helps living in SD, dont think it has actually rained here in two months for longer then 5 minutes....
as for cold weather, besides what everyone else has already said, the piece that i found to be the most helpful was my beleclava..or headsock..whatever you want to call it...usually worn by race car drivers as a fire protective device under the helmet..its not uncomfortable, and it keeps out the wind. There is also a neoprene version that only covers the nose and mouth area that you can see a lot of football players wear when its cold....

 

I chose all of them. I ride through the winter. In fact, I don't even have a working car right now (until "Project Duster" commences soon.) I use my bike for everything.......commuting, fun, trips, grocery store (sometimes I have to make multiple trips) etc. I have found that you really don't need a car at all, just a bike and better planning of your route.

 

I ride only in weekends.. ... I have to go to work with my laptops and documents so its not easy with a bike. Beside my working environment is not clean so I don't want her to get dirty.
My riding buddies are quite far away from me, I hate riding alone too.

 

Although I checked winter along with everything else you must understand that winter riding is a rare thing for me. But there are days during November - February when it's possible to take a quick ride. And I take advantage of them.
