Gonna hate winter

You will have to make up your own mind about when you want to stop riding. For the last 5 or so years I've ridden all year around except when there's ice on the ground and even then a few times. Once I paid for that with a long slide down the road. Where I live we don't get a lot of snow and ice and cold temps are short lived. I've got heated gear that makes even a two hour ride bearable down into the mid to upper teens. Having said all that, if you don't want to ride when it's that cold, then don't. It's your call to do what you feel good about, don't let anybody pressure you into riding in conditions you don't want to ride in, it's your life not theirs. Whatever you decide, I'm glad you are enjoying your bike. :2tup:
