The temperatures are getting cold in the morning. My front tire was slipping a little bit on a fun right hander right near my house. The list of repairs on my bike is pretty long already, I'd hate to add to it.

Be careful guys out there, and always be wary of cold tires!

I hear ya...I would love to take my bike to work today, but my ride home at 11 would be in the mid 40's tonight. Hmmm...I think I'll just drive in

Take mine to work and back everyday now for the past 4 years at 3AM! If it ain't rainin' or snowin' I'm on the bike!

Hopefully like last years...not bad at all! I rode at least 1 time every month for all 12 months in 2005. It was great. I couldn't believe we were riding in Nov, Dec, Jan & Feb in NY!

[05'600RR]

[05'600RR]

Hey get out of here you West Coast bastid - lol. Yeah I wish we had your weather all year round.

On a side note...becareful in the morning and at night. I just came back from a ride and my tires stepped out a few times even after I thought they would have heated up enough for a bit more aggressive riding.

 

[gee]

yeah !!!! summer is on the way!!!!
it has been crap for too long
cant wait for the better weather!

would this be a bad time to complain about the 90 degree heat we had today?

seriously though, one small trick to keeping your tires from being EXTREMELY cold in the morning:

If you park in the garage, keep the bike up on stands. Keeping it off the freezing cold concrete in the winter should help keep the rubber slightly warmer since the ambient temps are usually not as cold as the concrete. :beer:

 

[Crip2Nite]

Whaddya kiddin'?? Fall is the best riding season ever! Ya don't hafta sweat yer a$$ off with all that gear on and the bike runs even better in these temps! Bring it on!

You Fockers are complaining already?!? HOLY ****!!!!! This is BEAUTIFUL riding weather!!! Pretty much perfect for Leathers! So put away those textile and/or Mesh Jackets and put on a real one! You think this is bad??? This is nothing!!!

Try riding in the snow!!!! Then you'll appreciate what you have now!
