How cold does it need to get before you put the bike away for winter.

Apparently colder and more snow needed for this guy.-8c is not cold enough.[IMG]

Could catch the bus.Just like me.

Only 1rmb.

They wanted me to drive down to Urumqi today.No way. I say I'd like to live to see another day.

Trust me you don't want to go out on the highway or the main back roads between towns.Really bad things happen there.

Good day to stay home drink beer.

It was 1C today and i was still out on the bike riding for a bit, although it was dry and clear if a bit cold out

-3 and I'm still riding... But there is a huge difference between riding because I want to and because I have to...

Still riding daily to commute (0 to 1 degree Celsius in Shanghai now around 7AM), and I went to Moganshan again last week (-2 degrees Celsius in the mountains at 8AM).

I have to say though that without heated grips or handguards, the most difficult for me is the hands and especially the fingers.... In the mountains last Friday I had to stop every 30mn or so to put my hands on the engine. It took 2 days back home to retrieve full feelings on the finger tips...

The ride back to Shanghai, with stretches at 110 km/h, was painful to say the least... Without handguards, I will not do it again.
