33 (and 30 mph wind gusts) on the way home yesterday (I'm working mids at the moment), supposed to be colder than that when I get off in about 5 hours (30 right now). Rode yesterday, decided to take the car today. This Florida boy just can't do the cold weather. However, it is friggin killing me knowing I'm not riding the bike home.

It sucks, but we're also used to it. Most of us have never experienced year round riding, and when we buy our bikes we know it's a seasonal toy. It's hard to miss something you never had. That doesn't mean I don't...
Oh, and since we can't ride to get rid of that stress, we watch men beat the crap out of each other on ice with knives strapped to their feet.

When I had to deal with that nasty crap called winter my sanity check was built in by having and older bike . I spent all winter going over it and tweaking & repairing things so I could beat the hell out of it all the next riding season problem free . Worked for me anyway along with Toastman's cure for the blues .
