Snow=no go for me. I'm still toying with my maxium low temp to ride in with basic normal clothing ie jeans, heavy jacket , gloves etc. I'm thinking that one the low goes below 30 and the average day time high drops below 60 it will be time to wait for a warmer day with the exception of a few must ride sunny days. No winter storage here!

Isn't it always time to go for a ride? I love riding in the snow, and it really warms my heart to hear someone else say the same. Ice, on the other hand...

Heck yeah, I'll ride in the snow. Here where I live, snow is a big part of life. I tend to stay off the roads after salt has been put down though. Not real good for the bike. Rain is the same story, I'll ride in the rain too, no problem, just stay out of the center of the lane where all the oil tends to build up, and take my time and ride carefully. All the weather can be enjoyible riding if you do it right. When theres ice on the road, then I park it.
