Do you go on your bike when the roads are covered with thin snow ?

[MichaelW2]

Left the bike at home and took the bus to work. Yuk. 40 people got off the double decker in town before I got on and not one of them thought that opening a window was a good idea.

I took my bins out last night.

Pretty daring. I'm an adrenalin junkie.

You selfish bastard!

Today despite a touch of pinkeye and a raging cold I decided to take the doggy out to the moors.
We both got home alive and uninjured.

Can you do mine tonight please

You selfish bastard!

I know, taking the bins out is supposed to be my wife's job. I was hogging all the glory.

The one smack bang in the middle? Nay, that's a carradice leather logo they did themselves. It's a green/tan Pendle.

Is that a side boat mounted for passengers?

Don't be silly, that's the sleigh

For fun in the snow, a motorbike with sidecar is hard to beat.

I had a Ural military sidecar outfit for years and they were extremely good fun in mud or snow. Drifting was hysterical with two wheel or one wheel drive.

On Monday I walked to work. Getting on for 3 miles.

Minimal risk of harming others, but far more of a slip and fall risk than driving down the gritted dual carriageway...

I was reminiscing about this recently. A few years ago (in the 80's) I think we just used to ride in almost any conditions apart from hard frozen sheet ice, soft snow was no barrier. I certainly used to plow through getting to work riding fixed, not sure if that was better or not.
I went for a few jogs round the park early doors this week which was much safer!

Just got in from 2 hours 15 mins of feeling alive. Great fun with winter tyres
