I agree! I don't care what anyone else does or doesn't do, who's riding and who isn't this is the best time of year to be out. Cool temps, crisp air and the leaves changing make for perfect riding!

number of bikes on the road goes way down here as well.. if it's.. in the 70's and sunny.. there are 5 or 6 and sometimes 7 bikes in the MC parking at work.. yesterday morning it was 42 when I left home.. there was one other bike in the lot besides mine.. oh well I guess

I think by riding into work I've made some coworkers think twice about packing up for the season just yet. I used to play all day in the frozen mountains when I lived in the Sierra's, so now that I'm stuck in PA, I'll ride until the salt starts flying then I'll probably (reluctantly) put it up. If you know how to layer, it's not bad at all.

24 F on my hours ride in to work this morning. Felt invigorating! Have to watch those icy metal bridges now though....

Wallet?
And I thought I stopped riding to work because the deer are on the move. I'm man enough to admit if I hit a deer at speed...it's gonna hurt. And I live in a very rural area, if I were to hit a deer & was out ... it could be until the next morning before anyone knew it.
I have been riding during the day. It's been my excuse on why I haven't been packing(we're moving soon). "Hon, I'm not going to have to many more ride-able days, so I'm using what I get." Her response? "I know, babe. Go ride."

I couldn't care less what anyone else is doing. I ride til the snow flies. 3 digit therapy is cheaper than a shrink and far more fun. I aunt judging the fair weather riders,just the opposite. If you only like to ride when it's nice out then by all means wait for a nice day. I love to ride. It's all I think about. I find excuses to get out on my bike. Ride safe for the ones still riding. Those who aren't see ya next year

I couldn't care less what others are doing either and I don't understand why so many care.
