Winter has finally arrived here. Personally I wouldn’t go out on the bike when it’s like this but would you?
No thanks don't think I would be riding my bike in this sort of weather.Always think you should only see snow on Christmas cards and calendars. Tucker
On a road bike......Nope! The years of discretion are upon me! As a 23yr old I used to ride my trail bike in the snow but even then learnt a hard lesson hitting sheet ice under a layer of snow. Right now, with snow falling outside, I am pondering the wisdom of having recently sold my Subaru.......
I don't have a garage but just seeing your bike covered in snow going to ask my daughter if I can put my motorbike in her garage over winter. Tucker
Nah....not me mate I would say just about everyone riding in snow does so because they have no choice
All weathers me, commute 60 miles each day. So long as I can get on the bus route which is salted and then on the motorway then no problem. A liberal coating of Scottoiler 365 and a regular clean/service of the brakes etc. I would much prefer to ride in the snow than take the train into work
Last time I rode in the snow was in 1980 on my FS1E to my job at International Supermarket. It was about 2 Feet deep snow, kept falling off......what a laugh........aahhh ! those were the days.
Last time I rode in the snow was 1981 on my little DT125 oh the joy of being young (Blast from the past) Tucker
Trail bikes are a proper giggle in the snow, sharpens the skills perfectly, last one I had was a KLR 250 and yes I dropped it, embarrassingly within sight of home after a 10 mile commute.
Last time I rode in snow was in 1996 on my new Bandit 1200 on the way to college - bit of a handful !!! I was young and stupid then - now just stupid !!!!
You are not wrong there Gary! Mine was terrible - mind you if the frame had been made of rope it might have flexed less!
The only reason this got all the way up there was it was delivered by van and I lived only 8 miles away!
Last time I rode in the snow I was a lot younger and a keener to ride in any weather. These days I pick and choose when to ride and in what weather. This is of course unless on a GMU when there are no choices other than bloody wet!!!! Wessa
Last time I saw the Royal Enfield’s I was looking for a new bike, but the quality of the finish and lack of horse power put me off. I know they are made in India but my thoughts were if ou want to make inroads into the UK market then those just don’t/won’t do it.
Adrossan is nowhere near John O'Groats, but then that’s not a modern RE which I’m talking about. Nice bike HO.
