I live in the NE also and will ride unless there is snow on the road, I work at night and drive in the dark to and from work and it is friggin cold, but I like it.I have only been ridding three years and have not storged my bike for the winter yet. Am I crazy? YES.

Just back from a ride... the face shroud was a good idea (first time I've worn one).... Damn thing kept fogging up my goggles though (re-directing the air from my nose).... Had to pull it down at the stops.... But damn .... this Rat runs strong in the cold.... AMERICAN MUSCLE BABY!!!!!
I wear a facemask all the time with my half helmet to protect from the wind. They do fog glasses, But i retrained myself to breathe through the mouth. haha

Put mine away due to the short days and me not having the gear for cold weather riding yet. My job makes it so I can't ride if I need to take any kind of equipment with me anywhere, and I prefer not to ride if I am not comfortable. Legs shaking from the cold makes me uncomfortable. When I'm uncomfortable, I'm distracted, being distracted on the bike is not a good thing. Hopefully by the time the snow melts this season, I'll have the cold weather gear and be able to extend my riding season out by a few more months.

I finally pulled out my leather this week. It got a bit cool this weekend, 55 in the morning. Its still hitting 80s in the afternoon. I am so happy to be in Tampa Bay. Real riding season begins now.
