At my age sometimes God doesn't even know what's going to come outta my mouth

I get the same thing around here, asking me if I went for a ride if it's any where near 50-60.

Usually, where I live, if gets to 60 in Feb./Mar., it's so damn windy that it makes it almost impossible to ride a bike, plus, this winter not withstanding, there is a lot of sand on roads you have to watch out for.

I'm basically an old man now, and even tho I was never much of a cold weather rider, I really can't take the cold now so I wait until the end of March usually when you can count on it warming up into the 70's.

But I still know plenty of people that like to make it their point in life to make you feel like you are less of a man than they are if you don't care to ride in cold weather.

 

I get that when it's 20 below zero and 2 feet of snow on the ground.
You would think it would be funnier then. But it isn't.

 

That's the one that gets me too.

 

Not me. I'd rather 55 than 80.

 

I usually get the opposite. I'll ride to work if it is over 35 and there is no ice on the road. When I get to work people say "you rode in today?' in disbelief.

Its only a 10 mile ride for me each way so no problem as long as there is no ice or snow on the roads.

This has been a mild witer for us here. I have not put the bike to bed all season. The longes I have gone without riding was probably 2 weeks.

See that's one of the real cool things about having a Man Card you don't give a **** what others say or think and a shot of stink eye usually stops any further nonsense from the offending parties .

 

I get asked this all the time from coworkers, out of 50 of us 3 ride (2 dynas and 1 jap bike) motorcycles. Never really got pissed off over it but it can be annoying...
