    For the first year mine answer is just a little longer. I'll keep the bike road-ready all winter but will probably stop riding as soon as there is even a chance of ice

    I rode the CG in snow when I first started riding, it was actually the most capable vehicle in my garage for it!
    100 Japanese horses now unmuzzled! Derestricted hooliganism has commenced...

    365 for me - If it snows I will probably book a day off.

    Ice & Snow on a bike is not fun & can be very expensive!

    Col, the best pointer to determine the severity of a pending winter is to check out the energy supplier’s rises. You could be right-gonna be a badden.!!!!! : : :

    Col, what was I saying; EDF Energy customers will see a 10.8% rise in gas and electricity prices from 7 December, the company has announced. I'm with them :'( :'( :'( Bike may be off the road for good at this rate. Given up going down the pub, given up the baccky, selling the house

    I normally ride all round except snow and icy conditions but I might tuck mine up this year, not enjoying riding so much since I had a slow speed off in August.

    I havnt riden since the Isle of Wight trip but that's because my bike isn't in my garage atm! Had to find a substitute garage while we moved house and havnt been able to pick it up yet due to there being no room in the new garage! Hopefully making room and picking it up tomorrow though

    I tend to shake really bad when I am cold so probably not good for me to be riding in the extreme cold, but hope to get a few more rides in before the blizzards
