Re: Autumn season ride-outs
I'm guessing all your new gear is pink only girls need anything more than heated grips

Re: Autumn season ride-outs
Cold is ok, wear more layers.
Wet is ok, wear waterproofs. Cold and wet is ok for riding to work but its no fun at all. And icy conditions, well that's just ****ing stupid really

Re: Autumn season ride-outs
Having done a combo of Acerbis handguards, fairing 'wind deflectors', and heated grips on my last bike, I'm keeping it simple this winter and going for handlebar muffs.

Re: Autumn season ride-outs
Bunch of Pu55ie5. There is no such thing as bad weather, just poor planning and kit. (except ice. That stuff is as bad as peado-bear for messing you up)
There was a ok looking loop in Slipstream that goes around oxford basically. I'd lead it, but I have no navigational Aid. If getting lost is really part of the adventure, I'll print out an OS map and stick it to my tank. Navigate old-skool. |

Re: Autumn season ride-outs
In fact edit that. I will lead the ride in a couple of weeks, will post a date when I know I have a free day. If you don;t want to ride it, organise a better one.

Autumn season ride-outs
Some of those routes in slipstream look good. I can download the route straight to the satnag as well.

Re: Autumn season ride-outs
Where's the adventure. I guess that would be you deciding to exit the A303 with 25 yards. From the outside lane.
