Anyone else ride all year round?

Hey guy, and gals... So mother nature finally dropped some snow on the streets here in oregon. I've been riding for the past three winters on this moto, and still get a kick out of how easy it is to ride in ANY conditions! Honestly puts a smile on my face after having empty white streets today.... Am I just crazy or had anyone else got to experience this from their bike yet as well??? Rain, shine, snow, sleet... Way too comfortable on this thing

We have a new law for the winter tires so I can't ride my bike from december 15th to march 15th... It sucks because sometimes the weather is fine to take the bike out.

But Yesterday we brake the law : we put the R wheels on the X.

1+ foot of snow and lot of fun

I still get out from time to time.Just not like i used to in my younger days. At this time of year we put on the ice tires head out to a lake and have at it. Built 4 new tires yesterday,all spooned on rims so gotta go swap axels today.
Nice thing about the x/r is e-button,watching guys try to start up a 8deg is a hoot. Punch the button and ride off.

I am now riding mine rain or shine, but come the winter, they salt the roads too much here, so it stays indoors till about March :(

todays ride

My wrr was my only vehicle for the last two years until this September so yeah, all year everyday for me!

I'm in Southern Oregon and rode every day last winter. Been slacking a little this winter.

i just got back from a ride today.. nice challenging trail with part of in the great western trail. We ride pretty much all year.. sometimes there is a storm, or some other hindrance, but most of the time, it's year round.

There is a whole forum of year round riders.

Quite a difference between riding all year 'round when you live in Arizona, and some place like Winnipeg or Edmonton.

I did good this year. Insured the bike Feb 11 and plan on riding into December. I made it to Dec 12 last year. Then it gets to damn cold. -10c and lower. Just to damn cold. And, we usually get a couple feet of snow Dec thru Feb so it's not good to ride, mostly because of the other people on the roads. They tend to be twits!

i ride year round but i live in cali,so its never too bad...
