RE: How cold is too cold?
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.

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][&:]

RE: How cold is too cold?
rode yesterday about 70 miles..... many layers,and a mask. i have very heavy gloves.. temp was about 40 to 45.... i still was pretty cold when i got home. the ride sure was nice... rare to get a ride in at all here in ohio this time of year. i was dreaming of riding many more miles,just a dream till march.... the face mask sure helps though. winter blows . and yea,it was a ride to the harley dealer.
