Default Uh oh winters here.. :(

Another season of riding for us Canadians have just come to an end, how many of you guys actually get snow around these forums? In 48 hours we went from fry to 2 feet and still coming .. my poor KLX stayed outside those 2 days while I was away at work.. she didn't like the startup took me a while!

They are talking a possibility of some snow this weekend, which around here is pretty remarkable. Our big problem through the winter is usually ice though, so I'll have too make sure the studded tires are ready to go on standby.

Nice backhoe! I need one of those.
We average only 5-10' a year at my house, but it can stick around all winter.
I tripped on my clothesline a couple of springs ago...it's 6 1/2' off the ground.
I just put the studs on last week and have rode through more than one snowsquall already.
I ride all winter, what bums me out is coming out of work at 5pm and it's pitch black and I have to ride home with not enough light....need to figure that out.

Not for me, 57 and sunny when I left for work this morning. As long as it's not raining I ride.

Speak for yourself ("us Canadians"); in Vancouver we're lucky/unlucky (however you see it) to get a total of 2 weeks worth of snow on the ground all winter.

Brrr, no snow over here. Ever.

Never really cools off below maybe 75F at night

Endless Summer

There's a typo in the title, it should be "Oh yes, winters here.. "
