It aint too crap to ride here in the depths of winter, but it was soi cold this morning, that i got out of bed, and went and put the Barbeque on in the shed, because it was -2c in there at 3am, and i had lots of painted bike parts hanging to dry....

It is a steady 14c in there now.....1c below what paint manufacturer recommends for suitable painting conditions!

Stinks like sausage though!

Winter.....how i love the chill blanes you give me on a late night/early morning ride home from work! :eek:

I actually would prefer some winter temps. I have plenty of excellent cold weather gear and heated grips as well... June just started and we're already over 100 everyday here in OKC. And since I work late afternoons and evenings, it doesn't really give me a whole lot of time to ride unless I want to wake up at the butt crack of dawn!

It's gonna be hilarious when you're riding along, the bike heats up to operating temperatures, and you can smell snags sizzling :)

When I die.....I'm not going to heaven. I'm going to Australia!

Are you sure?

You might run into Stoner somewhere... Or a Kangaroo... Or Stoner...

This would be a boring eternity. (except maybe when the Kangaroo decides to punch Stoner)

It's hover about 100 degF in Texas for about a month now. I commute to work so in the morning it's not bad but during the day and going home is miserable. My riding attire is mesh jacket, helmet, jeans, gloves, and steel toes boots so I am sweating like crazy. Still love it though. The only thing that stops me is rain....
