I'm just wondering what everyone does when the snow falls and the bikes are pinned in our garages and shops?

I go for a ride on the Blast. Snow will slow me down, but it won't stop me.

Edit: Well after crashing 6 times and destroying the kill switch and the bike wont stay running, then yes it stops me. : (

When the snow closes the mountain roads it's time to take the dirt bikes out to the desert. Been doing a lot of exploring in Death Valley these days.

Around here the snow usually melts after a few days, then we ride again! As my magnet says..."I'm as far north as I want to be"!

I want to be in Froggy's spot without the crashes and destroyed kill switch.
Other than that, it's almost winter mod time!!!

I just put on my electric gear and continue to ride.
As long as the roads are not icy, I will continue riding year round.

Some of the time we get a break long enough for the sand and gravel to be blown off the roads. That's more of a danger than riding on the snow pack!

Preventative maintenance, standard maintenance, upgrades, mods...

Cycling on the trainer in the garage to keep from getting too fat, and keep my bike(s) company.

Special occasions will draw me out from the winter funk:


New Years Day

Get yourself a good compressor and sandblaster setup... you'll never run out of stuff to sandblast/paint.

When it snows....I play dodge the tourist...on occasion, I play dodge the tourist while snug and comfy in my heated gear...snow is very rare in these parts.
