Until you have to wipe the snot running from your nose while wearing a balaclava, it's really not cold.

And this is my personal belief : If you can't ride in the rain, you're not really a rider.

Riders in the UK definitely get my respect. It doesn't rain so much here in the South, but when it does, it can last all day - if you have no place to go, I suppose sitting under an overpass is fine. To me, that's the sign of someone that really doesn't want to ride, they just want to be seen riding when the sun's out.

Forget about fashion, buy gear that does the job. We are literally spoiled with all the choices in waterproof and cold weather clothing. Fifty years ago you basically had the choice of either a leather jacket that soaked up water like a sponge, or a leather jacket that soaked up water like a paper towel.

It's not much colder today than yesterday, but it's a lot windier.

The full-height flyscreen combined with the lightness of the LX 150 means highway riding is no fun when it's windy. I don't need to be tossed into an 18 wheeler by a gust of wind over the river.

And my workplace only reserves spots for scooters & motorcycles until Oct 31st.

Bastards.

Today was actually quite a nice day. The temp this AM was about 6*C and the high should be about 11 *C. Perfect riding weather because it should be dry.

no cattle thats an Absolutley Gorgeous Scooter !!!

Oooo, that sucks. Is it because of snow plowing concerns?

No, the cagers just want those extra 3 spaces.

I can understand that they give up some spaces after Nov. 1st. Where there used to be 5-10 motorcycles & scooters in the warmer months, there's only 2 or 3 now. But the intelligent thing to do would be to give up just half of the designated spots over the winter. Some of us will ride until the snow flies. And for the past few years, the snow hasn't really flown much in Minnesota.

Well, just make sure you take up a WHOLE SPACE then with your scoot.
