It's been up in the 50's just about everyday riding home so thats nice. So far this week the only other rider I have seen on the road was a trike......I put the hand out for him......

    So there have been a few snow flurries, and temps up to 35 or so, God knows down to what with wind chill.

    I haven't seen any other bikes out on the road in these parts, but I'm still good to go.

    I went to a lunch meeting today and there was another guy who rode. We were the only two crazies. He was on a 200x Honda Shadow 650 something or other, and had a jumpsuit and full face.

      It was about 28 F this morning when I rode to work. Looks like about 30 for the ride home tonight. Then again - its only a 5 minute ride.

      Plan to keep riding until snow/ice on the road makes it unsafe.

      Didn't see any other motorcycles today.

        Been topping out in the mid 30s-40 lately. The morning ride to work is a bit brisk; im fortunate enough to leave early in the evening before the sun is totally gone.

        heavy flurries the other day, but its always after im home so it hasnt been a bother yet.

        My neighbor (hes a Yamaha guy) and his son are the only other bikes i ever see- we all ride to work/school for the young guy.

          No bikers on the road 2 days ago when I did the 70 mile commute to/from work.
          18 degrees this morning but I was home cutting/splitting/stacking firewood on my "day off".
          Not worth freezing the fingertips now or a quick trip to the pavement from ice patches!!

          here was my ride today.....

            -7C yesterday, and I rode.
            -17C with the wind chill today, so I got the wife to drive me.

              Been riding everyday here, temps in the mid to upper 20s when I leave for work. Highs around 45-50, back down into the 30s by the time I ride home.

              Only seen one other bike this week, a harley on monday. The bastage didnt even wave.

                Today has been one of the only cold days here in denver. there should be a few more good riding days left around here though. It was in the 70's yesterday, 60-70 bikes in the school parking lot and surrounding free lots.

                  30 to 35 degrees today, with a decent wind, too. I rode 25 miles or so.

                  I saw two other two-wheelers, both of 'em waved. Second was a dirtbike with two riders, first was I don't know what cuz I don't have the eye yet.
