Dunno how cold it is - I am still riding into work, though.
Weather.com says it is 37, and feels like 26. It's not so bad, I suppose.

Re: (85)
It's been teasing here for weeks.
I went out today for a little bit.
We're all suffering from PMS (Parked motorcycle Syndrome) now.
It's suppose to get warmer in the week but it's gonna rain almost everyday it's 60+

its all about wearing the proper riding gear. The one most important thing you need for cold weather riding is a Balaclava. it will keep you neck warm. i wear a leather jacket leather gloves which arent for cold riding so my hands get numb but its not going to kill me. I also wear thermals under my pants and it keeps me pretty warm. to top it off i have a winter helmet from scorpion which ran me $180 if i remember correctly.</TD></TR></TABLE>
yea sure u can DO IT but its not fun at ALL and heavily increased risk of crash due to cold tires and tons of salt/sand/dirt on the road.
Not what Im about. Just my opinion of course

I don't have to much trouble riding when it's cold. Once my legs turn numb and I hug my gas tank I'm pretty good from there LOL

winters over man, the roads are salt free! but yes you can't dive into the corners. i still go out and ride when its cold but it kinda sucks at the same time. 45 or above on a sunny day isn't too bad though.

Re:
It got up to 51 today... I got my clutch replaced and got the bike started, but now I have a snapped throttle cable to fix. Poop. And today was the only good day to go for a ride cuz tomorrow it's supposed to be 36 and snowing/raining and only marginally better for the rest of the week.

dont know where you live but we just got 3-5 inches of snow = salt and sand. And it takes a good week or 2 of rain and nice weather to get rid of it.
