Who's still riding? (Fall & Winter 2024 Edition)

Awesome day.

Strangest thing I saw yesterday was a peddle bike (didn't look electric) pedalling away across the ice.

She turned on right away after 2 months of not starting it lol
Let it idle for a good 10 minutes and then rode it in the underground garage.

I'm excited

Why would you let it idle for 10 minutes? Is it an older carb bike that doesn't run right until warmed up?

Too cold where I am -14 this morning.

Sledding was good, 4 set of powder is a little much for my dinky sled.
 
I might try for Thursday, just not enough oomph left in me when I got home from work today after sleeping like crap the last few nights. Plus it had gotten windy and kind of crappy anyways. 12 degrees on Friday.

Saw lots of bikes out today. Saw one unfortunate soul almost get into a wreck on Highway 47 east of Stouffville. Clearly a new rider on a small cruiser, relying 100% on rear brake. That almost went very badly when it locked up trying to stop quickly for a yellow/red from 80-90kph. Managed to get stopped before high siding but I puckered on behalf of the rider.
 
Work appointment Tuesday had me see the temps at 15C from the cage display and wanting to hustle back for a little romp.

Temp started to drop but, took the bike out for a little run along the parkway. Find the rear shock a little jouncy and might need to search for a rebuild or replacement via internet. Don’t think ratcheting the spring load will make a difference.

Looking forward to warmer weather and will likely take the bike for some work trips when the weather allows.


Too chilly for a photo op but, next time!
