I am still getting a few days of riding weather here in Long Island. It's in the low 60's today. December 3rd. It makes me wonder about those people who claim there is no global warming.

I keep my bike insured year-round. There are always those January days when the temps get into the 50's and I go for a ride. Biggest issue here is the sand and salt that gets spread on the roads when it snows.

You ride on LI? So do i!  You should come out for a ride!

Still riding in NW Arkansas. Temps are dropping but plenty of cold gear to keep me warm. Will put her up when the wet stuff shows.

It's all done for me now, and the bike was brought into the batcave today to prove it.


Was hoping to get the front stand under too but there's not enough room. Stupid small dining room area thing.

Ride to work about 98% of the year here in the city of angels. Despite the inherent dangers of riding in traffic its still almost always a great day to be on a bike.  Between the weather and the legal lane-splitting its hard to beat cali.

Now if they could just do something about the price of real estate. Why do so many people wanna live here?  Oh ...

7" of the white stuff yesterday, and another 3" this morning. 

Guess it's time to break out my skis.

Lakes Region NH - done for the year.  7 inches of snow Saturday night.  On a plus note though - I now save $70.00 a month on insurance! laughingdp

Cold and dreary in Austin today, but not enough to keep the bike garaged. We are lucky, you can ride almost all year here provided you invest in some decent gear.

I ride all season.  14ºF this morning when I left for work.  My FI SS is SO much easier to start and easier on my sleeping neighbors...  No more shotgun-volume backfires from my overly rich carbs.  I'm in the Western NC mountains ~
