ReconRat Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 The apparent temperature (wind chill) will be below the dew point tomorrow morning. That will result in frost on the roads in various places at various times between 5am and 10am.Having hit frost before (even a few days ago), and finding it not so much fun, I'd thought I'd mention it...

heypal16 Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 I might try to ride up to Hamilton Ohio on Sunday if it warms up a little. I rode on Monday after the rain and it was a wee bit cold out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSparky Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 i'm (stupidly) determined to ride until the end of the quarter. i did last year, with a few exceptions, which i'll make this year probably but tomorrow should be ok, i'm pretty safe in the 8 o clock piranha-fest.

tyler524 Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 I wish the snow would fall already. If it's gonna be cold, there should be snow on the ground. If not, then it needs to warm up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester3681 Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 I ordered a set of snow tires for the Sable... I was hoping to wait until Thanksgiving time to put them on... ugh. Seriously though - for those determined to ride, be very, very careful. Most tires for motorcycles are not designed for temperatures much below 50 degrees. Make sure to ride accordingly.

Beegreenstrings Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 (edited) I did not have any at my house. Tons of this goofy looking heavy fog like water floating around but it was not freezing on the windshield.

RSparky Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 34 degree ride to work wasn't that bad actually. On the way home, I felt like I had a bullseye on my helmet, though. People were even more idiotic than usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReconRat Posted October 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Yeah, Friday driving habits... not so good. People distracted, on phones, stuff.I had frost on outside and inside. Guess I live in a swamp.Hit bad traffic jam downtown. Apparently a deputy sheriff spotted a car he wanted.That blocked two lanes, and morning rush hour backed up a half mile.It took a while to get past that. But no bike, it really was slippery around my hood.I'll ride a few days next week, I'm sure. Till the salt comes out and I lose interest.
