Well the season is officially over. At least for me it is...

I just dropped my bike off for winter storage at my Indy. Probably going to have the suspension redone. Maybe Progressive 940's in the rear and Progressive mono tubes up front. I will have the bike lowered 1" front and back so I can get a Russel Day-Long saddle. I am also considering getting her front legs done gloss black. After all there will be no extra labor involved...

Not for me! I have the late afternoon blocked off on Thursday Dec 1, I'll get out for a few chilly miles. At that point it will be an 11 month riding season in Michigan, w0oT!

I got 2 rides in February, and if I wasnt up north for new years last year, it would have been a 12 month season because it was in the 50s on the first.

I just did 4 hours of riding to Orlando. We ride all year round here. Y'all should come and thaw out when it gets really cold up there.

It's only 14 miles one-way to work for me, so I ride 12 months out of the year... my all-time low riding temp is 22F.

As long as the roads are clear, buy some good gear and ride!
