How often do you ride in the Winter ?
I’v become a big softy over the last couple of months
I used to ride every day of the year what ever the weather, but lately just once or twice a week. How often does the average SV,er get out and about in the winter ? |

This winter, hardly at all. I haven't needed to. I've made a few cross country journies, one of them 2 up, but other than it's been standing idle.

Daily as I commute on the SV. It was a little chilly this morning, thank the lord for heated grips.

I used to ride almost every day during the winter, but now I'm tending to use the car if I'm going anywhere at weekends and just commute by bike during the week.

Every day except when I've got a bit too enthusiastic with the taking-apart and a bit less enthusiasm for the putting-together

Only after the sun has shone at atleast 20°C on 10 consecutive days following a torrential downpour to wash away the salt and cr@p off the road.

I'm on it every day.. no matter the weather, rain, snow, roof tiles... cold or hots.. windy or not. 130 miles every day, and we both look rather worse for it...
 Though this winter has been rather easy so far, though a little cold at times (touch wood).... my biggest problem has been electrical faults. |

My wife has been most accommodating recently, therefore I ride most days.
