went out today
I went out for a quick blast today, went from Penzance to St Ives to Camborne to Helston and back home again,
it was bl**dy freezing,
when its cold it just takes some of the fun out of it, got a week off now and I bet its going to be cold or raining every day,
I wish the warm weather would hurry up and arrive, roll on hot sunny days and hot sticky tarmac

Re: went out today
when you get cold your concentration drops and you can put yourself into dangerous situation without realising.
if you wear the right kit then you dont get cold and you'll enjoy riding much more and then you realise that there is no reason why you can't ride all year round,

Re: went out today
yeah, I didn`t think it was that cold until I was out, keep having to go for a pee now,
there was a lot of coppers out too, one with a speed gun near St Ives, four cars parked in a petrol station in Hayle and one stopped a car in Penzance

Re: went out today
I went out and destroyed my bike, oh happy days.
I always go out in the worst weather, mainly because i get so few days off if i dont go out in them i wont at all.

Re: went out today
It makes fair weather motorcyclists like me seem rubbish, last time I even looked at my bike was over a month ago.
I reckon mid april and the season starts again.

Re: went out today
manged to get a ride out yesterday as well
The first proper ride since the first weekend in January (now that was a cold camping weekend)
Did 200 miles around North Devon and Somerset and a few places in between starting out from Exeter
We always managed to stay away from the rain and never got cold at all (just a tshirt and my lining in the jacket)
There is no such thing as bad weather for biking just wrong equipment

Re: went out today
being young ive only got one choice of transport so im an all weather rider, even if its raining ill take the long way home, must be some kind of addiction
