February 23, 200916 yr It's only been crappy for a couple of weeks ! Just get out and ride, this is the time to do it - but stay safe
February 23, 200916 yr When will we start getting better weather - its so bloody cold! I haven't had much chance to ride my bike yet as I bought it in December. Aaaarrrrgh!... Roll on better weather My sentiments exactly!!...being a relatively new rider myself (only passed my test last August) im taking no chances either until the weather picks up...
February 23, 200916 yr Seriously guys, this is the time to get out on the bike. I'm not suggesting you ride like barry sheen, just plod along and take it easy - you will see the rewards come the spring. Even just a 30-40 mile jaunt, you'll be a much better (technically) rider when the sun comes out. Then you can spend a couple of hours cleaning the bike..... The biggest downsied I'm afraid If the bike has any little niggles it gives you loads of time to sort them out before the reallllly good biking weather comes along, and as we only get a couple of days of this weather you'll want the bike in A1 working order. I passed my test in September 19xx and never got back in a car until well into the next summer.
February 23, 200916 yr Moderator I've been out all weekend on my new bike! Nothing too racy - just bimbling along nicely - clocked up a fair few miles too! Dont matter that its cold - you can always stop for a cuppa tea along the way
February 23, 200916 yr COLD ???? You gotta be kidding Been positively spring-like down here past few days, loads of bikes out at the weekend, was nodding like a noddy thing
February 24, 200916 yr I love the cold - better than summer any day. You don;t get hot, and there is less traffic.
February 24, 200916 yr Author Went out on Sunday for about an hour, but the cold does start to creep in!.. I do try and get out whenever I can, but i really am just fed up of this crap weather... Roll on Summer.... Are there going to be any biker meets in the near distant future?... regards, -Mits-
February 24, 200916 yr Went out for a blast on Saturday, called in to Cadwell Park to watch the track dayers for an hour, we did about 100 miles in the afternoon, the sun was shinning, it felt really good to be out and about.. Sunday we did almost 200 miles, no rain but was overcst and not quite as warm as Saturday, hell of a lot of bikes about Called into Willingham Woods just outside Market Rasen for a cup of coffe and a bacon butty
February 25, 200915 yr Been riding all year round as usual. not been too bad, the snow was a bit of a pain though, just took it easy when riding. The roads are a lot better now, have been leaning the bike over a lot more. Starting to wear the outer bits of the tyre now. Take care all, Ken
