I hope it stays this way, as we are planning to ride to Daytona Bike Week.

Re: How many of people are still riding this winter?

As a beginner, I need all the practice I can get, so I try not to let the weather stop me. Even if I just get out there for a quick 20 min. ride down the road, every little bit helps.

That being said, it takes three shirts, a sweatshirt, a winter coat, two pairs of jeans, two pairs of socks, two pairs of gloves, and a tightly wound, tucked-in scarf to get me out there... :whistle:

But, hey, I'm just thankful the roads are clear.

Chim, put on a rain suit to stop the cold wind from penetrating your clothing. The wind chill is sucking away your body temp.

Re: How many of people are still riding this winter?

I rode two days ago when the temperature was in the mid 60's, now it is 20 degrees with 3 inches of snow on the ground. In two days it is supposed to be in the 60's again.

Yeah, we are in a cold snap now. 35 high and teens low.

It will get better.

We ride a few days each week, but to be fair, it usually hits the 70's by noon down here in Florida. Be Safe JIM
