I took a buddy’s DR400 for a spin this morning for a dare. It was -22C, the 25km round trip between his house and mine was bone chilling.

I got so cold I couldn’t find myself when it came time to take a piss.

Not yet.

Having a trophy wife is like having a torch - both good for frozen nuts.

Today is one of the rare days I need to go to the office in DT Toronto. I'm considering whether I should take the Triumph or use the TTC.

I'm not worried a our the cold (heated gear for the win! ) but rather I'm concerned about the precipitation and the possibility of black ice on the roads. I know it might seem like a silly question, but I don't have enough experience with commuting on this kind of weather.

When in doubt, just take the TTC. Rainy day with salt everywhere from the other day... No bueno. Will be warmer this weekend.

There's no black ice anywhere.

I'm still riding daily

City slickers, showing how tough they are

That's because you like danger and pain

There'll be black ice tomorrow morning, though.

Saw some brave soul riding in the Stouffville area today in the snow.

Salt brine everywhere this week and hoping today's rain cleaned up the roads a bit. Would like to get some miles in on Monday.

At least we have a not totally crappy forecast for the weekend, although hardly warm temperatures. But we’ll at least see some sun.

Rode to work this am. 2.5c on the dash. Currently 14c should be a nicer ride home.

Great day to be out riding. Saw a lot of bikes out, even some Harley's. Went up to Minden and surrounds.
Not much traffic and no bugs!

If you didn't get out for a ride this weekend it's entirely on you.

Got my fill of ~400km of twisties yesterday. Most of the roads are clean. Secondary roads are pretty soft and pretty much anything with no winter maintenance isn’t passable yet. This was an easy road in nice shape but after slugging 20min down the southern unmaintained portion of Old Hastings Rd I had to turn back when I couldn’t make it up a 25m section of ice on a north-facing hill. No photos there as it was either mud or ice. I got proper muddy
