Default Hardened bikers

Ok, so who is hardcore and still riding their bike regularly this time of year? And who are the wusses (read sensible ones ) who wouldn’t dream of going out in the snow and have left their bike nicely wrapped up in the garage?

I did 200 miles on mine today. Does that make me hard.

Glorious sun, pity someone from the council wants to spend their salt budget as it was all over the roads, why?. Meany I had to wash the bike off when I came home.


Yeas cold. but free of sunday drivers. Yippee
