Does this forum have mostly fair weather riders or is there more people like me that ride whenever they can no matter the weather?

Once the snow is gone and the sand is cleared off the roads, I'm going riding!

Its a little different around these parts, we get temps of -19 celcius plus a wind chill. You'd need a snowmobile suit to go out, then you'd have to worry about sliding around on black ice, or losing control on sand. Too risky imo.

But come spring and fall, the temps are usually fairly cool, I'll be out just like I was last year!

I ride pretty much as much as i can. I really don't ride to much in the rain here since it can poor with out even noticing and plus the cagers here can't drive worth s!@# so i don't feel safe riding in the rain around them.
