Boswell Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Now it's winter I really can't be asked to ride mainly because of the cold temperatures and rain. I was just wondering how many other people hibernate winter like me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James-M Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Nothing like going out on a cold, dark winter's evening wrapped up, riding with a few mates in a quiet area under a few street lamps. Ride on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy d Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Nah don't hibernate, I've been kind of forced into temporary hibernation with a bad back, and it just makes me feel lazy and loserish not to get any exercise. It does suck when it's wet and windy though, wishing there was an indoor skate park where I am at uni!It also annoys me a bit that I seem unable to balance at all in the dark, I need daylight!

N.Wood Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Ha, i went for a little ride/sunbathe on the beach today, was an awesome day. Sunbathing in mid November? f**k you polar regions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 When i used to ride, id go out whatever the weather. Just put a waterproof jacket on and a pair of shorts that dry off fast when it stops.In the cold, just wrap up and ride till you get mega hot, take the jumpers off and carry on blasting it. you'll stay warm then.

Matthew_Gibson Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 I kind of do! I still ride to work and school, and have a hop about on the way, but not long rides like the good old sumer months, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 As long as it doesn't rain, I'll ride. The cold isn't too much of a problem since you warm up when riding anyway, and there's plenty of light in Manchester too. The only problem is that it rains much more often in winter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil H Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Nah not atall, just put some layers on and its just the same. My whole body was steaming tonight riding, apparently was minus something and I was sweating like a beast.Once your warm its all the same really. Must admit the rain is abit crap but in the end will help you improve getting to grip with adverse conditions for comps and stuff. Is hassley though.Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
