@ choneofakind I have thought about the salt on the roads during winter. These last couple winters they haven't even bothered with salt half the time in my area. I wouldn't try and ride if they are getting the roads ready for a winter storm (they just drop the salt in piles here, it's not spread out at all), or if we've had snow recently but the roads are dry. What I was meaning is there have been several periods in the last winters where we went a stretch long enough without heavy snow to the point where the roads were dry and no salt on them. I hadn't thought about the roads being too cold to get good grip with the tires. If I did go out during the winter, it would just be to practice skills on the Rubber City range down the road. Would that be ok? I don't have anywhere to store the bike for the winter. She'll just stay covered up and I'll keep moving any snow off the cover when I can.
