As soon as the salt trucks come out, I'm done till the roads are washed off completely.

I have to agree with most of the Northerners. As soon as the salt trucks come out the bike goes up.

Just put my bike into hibernation for the winter. Now, I'll be in a funk until about mid-March. I was wondering when other folks choose to go through this ceremony.
Sometime around Mid-July through August is when we shy away from venturing out during the daytime... It is like 2007FXDC's sig pic. around here that time of year!!!



Other than that -- we know no "season" for riding -- one of the great benefits of living along the Gulf Coast!

Cooler weather is here, great riding weather. Many 300 - 400 mile day trips planned for this winter. Just got to watch out for those blind migratory snow birds

Blind snow birds, you say! We like the fact that they migrate south, since they can't drive in snow, especially when they're driving down the middle of the road.

This is for all you down south and out on the coast this is what we in the snow belt have to put up with all winter. Now you know why our blood pressure goes up every time we think about snow.
