cg2112 Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 I bet a bunch of people were kicking themselves for putting their bikes up after the last couple of days we've had, but it looks like the warm weather is finally done now. I might wait a couple more weeks, but I think it's about time to pack it in, as much as I hate to do it?Anyone call it a season yet? Or still riding on nice days? Or riding even on the days when it's so cold that your junk goes missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWing'R Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Anyone call it a season yet? Or still riding on nice days? Riding season never ends, the days just get farther between I've been to busy to ride recently but I don't put my bike up, I'll ride when the weather is nice.

jporter12 Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 I got a few more days in. Not very many miles, but still got out on the bike! It was a bit cool headed home from work at 4:00 this afternoon. If I lived much further away from work, I'd have dressed warmer for the ride!

thirdgenlxi Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Still riding every day here... I'm a little further south though, lol. Weather has been pretty nice here lately... mid/high 30's-low 40's in the AM when I go to work, and 60-70 during the day It's gotten down in the 20's a few times too... I still rode anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buildit Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 90 Miles Saturday and 200 miles last Sunday. Today was just a few laps around the yard with the dogs chasing me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vf1000ride Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 I rode on Sunday last week. I will get out on weekends until the roads are icy or snow covered. I don't take it to work as often but I usually don't quit until the temps are below freezing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

600ZZ4eb Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 i would still be riding but the wife pulled into the garage last night and hit the bike and broke off the left rearset just like when i crashed on 555 last year. :-( Bikes up for the season and i'll look for parts over the next couple months....this only the second day the bike shared the garage with car :'-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 rode monday night, depends on what the weather does, might be putting her in the corner for winter next weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad324 Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 i didn't want to do it but somehow it always works out the nice days I'm busy and don't have time to ride. So I had a few hours to kill one day last week and said screw it and cleaned it up and threw a cover on it.I guess its never fully "away" for winter since there is no stoppage of insurance with Allstate and all I need to do is unplug it from the tender and take off the cover. Its the thoroughly cleaning it thats the pain in the ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaNick Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 I ride on and off on random nice days till end of December. Then when I know there is no chance, I put stabil in tank, reduce tire pressure, and put battery tender on battery. I always put my bike on both stands after every ride as a habit anyway, so that isn't needed. 5 minutes of work at the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
