Bill you are dedicated. I am from Texas and that weather would be WAY TOO COLD TO RIDE IN. It normally is under 30 degrees lest than 10-12 days per year. Dress warm and be safe.

I ride in the Pocono Mountains in PA.

Weather has NO bearing whatsoever in my decision to ride or not. When time is free, and or when friends can join,
we ride.

Below zero temperatures up to 35 degrees mean snowmobile gear, slick trails and good times. Riding in snowmobile gear means covering every inch of your body. With proper gear, several hours of riding results in nothing but good times and sweat. NO COLD GETS THROUGH, NONE AT ALL. Pray for snow, between 3-5 inches, in cold weather!

With warmer temps, pouring rain does mean I'll be wet, sopping wet, but mud is nothing but slippery fun.

I ride under ANY conditions...
my least favorite conditions are HOT weather, where sweat on sweat bakes through, and wind chill doesn't help. I like to be covered, for protection, but, phew, 100 degrees can really cook a guy in a helmet in the woods doing only 25-40 through the trails.

Dam guys time to pull out the sleds =)

Just got a Ski-doo Formula III 700. Its a 700CC tripple 2-stroke...talk about fast!!! Im telling u if you have never ridden a snowmobile go check them out. I just got into it (still love my quads). If you like quads you will DEFINATLY like sleds!

Also, just got my 2000 scrambler 400 today. Wasnt quite as fast as the sled, but oh well.

i'm from scranton, pa. high for today is supposed to be 13 today, thats not too bad. windchills have been around -25. its not bad during the day hours as long as you layer up. my only problem is my hands never stay warm no matter how good of gloves i have. i am thinking about buying a pair of the mits for the end of the handlebars. it seems like they would keep you warm by keeping the wind off your hands. i also bought one of the neopreen ski masks, helps alot, and fits right under your helmet. goggles are a must in cold weather. we got a few inches of fresh snow here, not as much as i was hoping for, but enough to get out and slide around a bit. weezel, you were saying "if it doesn't snow tomarrow" why not, thats the funnest time to go riding around.
