No fair! Monday it was 35 deg...Tuesday it was 32 in Houston! I dont have any chaps either! You ever try to kick start an MC without an accelerator pump (stock Linket) and full of straight 50wt Molasses...it will teach you all you need to know about proper tuning! [8D]

I'm in.
As long as the day is clear and the road is clear, I will ride my bike or drive my Camaro SS.
The one wimp out I have is I won't ride in the rain (unless I get caught in it) in either vehicle.
The Camaro is too hard to clean the undercarriage after driving it in the rain so I avoid it (except on track days which I won't miss unless I have to).

Unless you convert to a trike or a sidehack or run skis there is no way in hades you can ride all year round up here.
Even though it has warmed up the streets look like a Zamboni just came thru.

Thats why they put the 20 in the 20 / 50 oil ! I ride when I can too , Just make sure you rinse off the salt , it will kill your chrome . Living in Buffalo I don't get a lot of winter riding but I never take the insurance off and ride as much as I can. I have a streak that I ride at least once a month for as long as I can remember .

RE: "Year 'Round Club"
I am in too. My E-Glide is my second bike and plan to ride it year round too. My first bike, which I still own, rode it yr round for 2 yrs. It does not even have the first bit of wind protection on it. The coldest day that I remember, when I left the house was 18 degrees outside. My commute is 60 miles round trip.

I'm not putting mine up, either. Looks like a good weekend coming with sun and temperatures near 40. The only thing that bothers me is salt. What are you going to do with the big block of ice after spraying the salt off in freezing temperatures?
