Didn't stop riding until someone at work nicked my keys, she didn't want to see me on the road with my bike :shock:

My VFR750 is stranded at work, fortunatly the company director allowed me to take her inside the building
and my NC30 is tucked up in the garage with a duvet and oil filled rad to keep her warm

too cold to even think about goin out, think 'll open a beer

snow + bike = fun

snow + bike + ice = fall - unless you have... one of these:

It gives a whole new meaning to, "Going to work on the bike." :twisted: :grin:
