I stick to the 45 degree rule. Under 45 then I do not ride.

For all day riding:
Below 40 is too damned cold! I'm gettin' too old fer that, myself!

I'll go out for a lil' while if it's gonna warm upto over 40, but not fer long! (As in, ride to a bar and get a burrito and a beer! )
Then hit the road.

Frosties or ice is a No Go.

Cold temps don't keep me off my scoot, but snow/ice do.

Like this weekend:



Winter sucks. [:'(]

Cheers!

The problem here is the snow removal. I have a Grand
Cherokee, so I could put it in just aboutany snow bank
I see. But there's always some shnook stuck in the middle
of the road somewhere. And they say the snow so far is
just the beginning.[8D][&:]
