Hey Chico...that really sucks...I know. Tomorrow is November 1st and I have a ride scheduled tomorrow morning. Temps expected to be 38º F at the start. Only reaching 53º F for the high. But at least I'm riding.

The cold weather hasn't stopped me yet. Just dress warm. Snowmobilers run all day in below freezing temps, Ya just have to dress for it if you really want to ride. I'm gonna go till the snow flies.

Had a PGR mission today for a soldier who died in the copter crash this past Monday. Twas a chilly ride to and from. I think I'm gonna store the bike now. The cold is getting to me a lot more. What's it called? Wimp? Yup.

Well, I am posting this because I am stalling. Temp outside is currently 35º F and I have a 1 hour ride to meet up with a friend. What did greyphart call it...wimp. I'm sure I'll get plenty of looks riding this morning and people thinking "that guy is nuts". Layers, layers, layers!!!

Still ridding when it's not raining, last week I got
back to find the bike covered with frost, road home on
a brisk 27deg mornig.
Like Roadstarnewbie said I can ride what ever the temp
just not on ice or snow.

I feel lucky enough to live somewhere I can pretty much ride year around... we do get snow, some years more than others, but I am able to ride all year with bein able to bundle up... I cant live anywhere I cant ride...

It might get cold enough tomorrow morning that I might have to put on a jacket... Dress warm my friends, dress warm.

Woo Hoo. I have all week off and the weather looks like it is going to be great (mid to high 50's)! This guy is going to get some riding in before work starts calling to offer extra shifts. I have plans for lots of mods this winter, but I'm not ready to give it up yet...
