1) Cold weather gear. Makeshift is ok...in some cases.
Mesh jacket + windproof liner + fleece= warm
Mesh Gloves + Fleece gloves on the outside = popsicle fingers
Jeans + long-johns = okay for short rides
Helmet + zipped up fleece around neck = okay
2) All of that crap on the roads that falls off trees and bushes that is OK to drive across is NOT OK to ride across.
3) I'm debating if I can afford to "winterize" my bike for a few months. What do you need? Battery tender, fuel stabilizer, empty the floats and bike stands? Probably $$ I dont have. I guess I'll just ride her once every few weeks regardless of weather.
