If it's 33 or warmer, I usually ride. Tomorrow is going to be about 35 am. I'm riding.

Supposed to be about 35 degrees in the morning when i leave for work. I haven't rode my bike in almost a week soI'll probably ride in the morning also. Besides it's kinda fun seeing all the people all bundled up in their cars with the heater blasting staring at you in disbelief.

I'm glad for you guys.We have snow on the ground and being on snow and 2 wheels isn't good.Trust me on that I have been there before. It was over 5 inches deep.

Yea back in High School whenI lived in Oklahoma I would ride my bike all the time all seasons as it was my only mode of transportation. Riding in the snow sucked but ice was worse. I'm surprisedI didn't kill myself back then.

When I rode with 8 other buddies the other night, it was 40. Most of us were fine but because he thought it looked cool, my 25 year old buddy rode with no helmet fingerless gloves and pants with holes. He froze his *** off! I was pretty warm.lol!!
