D*mn cold outside!
It's 50 something degrees outside, and I need to get out and scrub all the mudd off my gear and clothes I rode in this week. I did two different runs all week both were dry with crazy traction, but getting out and back few muddy and just wet spots with no way to get around them. Suprising how much mudd can splatter in less than 200 yards.

HTFU.
The splattering stops once temps drop in to the 20s.

Haha I'm Maine we got about a foot and a half of snow and it's in the teens right now. I can't ride till mayish
Just take off the silver part you'll still have the pretty anodized partion, and you'll ride much faster. As fast as a 29er!

Rode today, high of 45, going up was nice. Going down was freeeeezing! At least I can ride year around.

Yup, had to rub it in, lol! I lived in Cleveland for year so I know all about snow and frozen ground and the wind chill going down hill.

I dropped out of a new year's ride because it was in the 50's today. No excuses, I can't deal with the cold on my bike, I'm a wimp.

According to a Celsius to Fahrenheit converter, its been between -4 and -22 Fahrenheit here, still rideable despite the snow.
Lately its been around 32 and 38 though and raining, making puddles, which sucks, a lot. If there's one thing that I can't bare, its getting wet when its cold. Can't ski now either

Just above freezing is the worst! Wet and cold.

It's currently a bone chilling 11 degrees outside. Needless to say the bike is going to be hung up for a while.

1st day, I hit it medium speed not knowing how sloppy and deep in spots it was.
2nd day, decided to try and push bike around the nastiest spots, ended up slidding down a groved out rut and stil got full of mud.
3rd day, screw it, plowed through it, and crashed into the side of the same V-groove that I fell in on day two!

50 is very cold when the wind starts blowing....we love our days of winter, when it is 70 to 80 degrees ....it $ucks bad at 50

Depends on what you're used to, I still go riding when its around -22 degrees fahrenheit, but its suicide for me to go when its over 75.

We can ride when its well below 0 in fact as long as your dressed for it its a lot of fun. I just don't like when there's a wind
Post some pics Padi I'd love to see some winter riding from Finland!

Yeah, winter riding is fun as long as it isn't windy. -20-30 degrees Celsius doesn't feel cold when you've got a full face helmet and warm clothes on.
Well I'm sick now, and the most of the snow has melted away now as we had a couple of random rainy days this week, so there won't be pictures for a while.
I'll try to get some next weekend though
