Fairweather riders disgraceful

[virginiajim]

sounds like the perfect weather for a log fire and a nice whisky Jim      

I've been outside with the grandson, snow blowing the driveway and shoveling.  Wanted to try the 4WD truck on the local streets but the contractors we have taking care of that are too good.  They're just wet now, but it's snowing again and I'm ever hopeful.  Anyway, been in, ate lunch, had a beer and now ready for some Scotch.

6 inches of snow. PAH!

Where's ya snow chains??

Right, who made it out then., pictures for proof would be good (but not essential ).

Me?  Well a good long dog walk followed by a several  hours of pressure washing all the patio areas saw off the remainder of the day, it was cold (about +4c)

So after a bloody good belly buster tea I'm now enjoying a glass of wine, or two or.................

Yep made it out today on both bikes really enjoyed it, good ride with the lads on the monster not too manic today quite pleasant, then a leisurely ride with Mrs Zed on the GTR it was damp but manageable. Only down side was both bikes got absolutely covered in grime so gave both a wash and power hose now like new again.

Lovely hoss's nice to see im not the only crazy out in this weather. Although my richa gear is really warm i must say and ive taken off the two air deflectors from my fairings and i think it looks much better but is supposed to aim air onto your legs. Anyone confirm that(08 bike). I have heated grips n that helps to. Just cant resist urge to climb on n ride 😃🏍🏍🏍🏍

Here's a picture of my 2011 Met Dark Green GTR, ...you can see from the crap and crud on the bike that the Kawasaki deflectors do provide a small amount of improvement in deflecting wind...TBH I never thought they made that much difference, They were fitted in with the deal when I bought the bike, so I didn't feel robbed
