Whats the weather like wear you live.and if cold and snow do you ride in it.
-
The weather is currently 27F here in Denver, a few flurries last night, but allegedly no snow accumilation. I ride if the roads are not slick. My scooters are my only transportation. If they're more than an inch of snow I don't ride. If it's icy I don't ride. I usually rent a car in those times. I ride 28 miles from home to work and back usually at 630 am and 5 pm. Carburated bikes don't do so well under 32 F.
-
Tell us how you really feel...... Some have to prove how "macho" they are and some have to prove the chip on their shoulder is the biggest. Don't be offended it's just how I feel.
-
Chip on my shoulder because stupid people ride in frostbite type weather and on the snow? Hardly! ::)
Make sense when you challenge someone. :o
Sam ;)
I'm good in any reasonable temp, but any sign of ice or snow build up I'll call in to work. Cutting out at 45o is a little wimpy imo!
-
Right now I am naked, and texting from my scoot. I am on I-95 North, and enjoying a soy moca latte, and rolling a joint.
Using my night vision goggles I am also sketching a portrait of the tractor trailer in front of me.
the only reason I am posting all of this is the damn woman in the SUV I just passed is putting her lipstick on. That crazy bit"h is gonna kill someone.
Thank god it's warm here in Fl.. I can put the cruise control on, and take a nap.
Get em Max!

OOOOOOOO He just Didn't ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

@Porkie, your opinion holds a god deal of logic and as a whole I don't disagree with you. I ride in all temps, I dress right and my ride to/from work is all of 10-15 minutes so getting frost bite isn't much an issue for me.
I do however have a slight problem with your delivery, I'm sure you could have dressed up your words to make them more palatable, just as I have done in my reply to you. In the interest of keeping this a friendly forum why not retract a phrase or 2 and everyone will know you’re not a raving lunatic.
Riding in the snow on a 2 wheeled scoot is dangerous to yourself and those around you, I don't ride when there is the chance to slip and fall, I stop riding in the winter once we get accumulating snow cause the plows will push it to one side of the road and it melts in the noon day sun and turns to ice after sunset and causes a whole new problem.
Have I taken my scoot out in some snow when no other drivers were on the road, hell yeah, it was fun doing 360's in front of my house. I certainly don't want to be the guy sliding under some truck or other driver causing them nightmares and regret the rest of their lives.
Be polite, and others will be. Have a nice day.

Maybe there should be an organization called the: FIBA : The frozen Iron Butt association ...
IBA Finland provides regular "Ice Butt ss1000" rides starting at Nordkapp in Jan or Feb.
But (imho) the first were Russians.
If I were a Law enforcement office in Denver and saw a guy riding a scooter in the snow on public roads, I'd cite them for 'exhibition of stupid."
You probably never saw professional riders on ice. But I did.
Since 1966, Russian riders have won the Ice Racing World Championship 40x - nearly every time! US riders: 0x.
-
:'( WOW. SORRY FOR STARTING THIS POST. Ill keep to my self about how I ride....lol.....
-
If I were a Law enforcement office in Denver and saw a guy riding a scooter in the snow on public roads, I'd cite them for 'exhibition of stupid." A person sliding around on snow, on public roadways, who can't accelerate, turn or stop using more than 1/2 horsepower and 1 mile per hour is a public menace, endangering other's lives. You can buy real cheap used cars that would be so much safer, with a heater and very little chance of frostbite.
Don't be offended, it's the way I feel: There seems to be a 'MACHO' thing with some bike/ scooter riders where for some reason they are 'EGO' driven to tell folks about their super-human ability to be out in the elements and prove their worth.
Every winter the freezing ride reports start.
Sam:)
Pardon me, but I don't see any little :) faces on this reply. After reading your latest reply now you just come off as an unforgiving arse.
To others, I love how Porkie says he rode in snow slowly, you know how slow he was going? A rabbit with snow shoes was hoping faster than he was.
Back to the Porkster, the over use of the smile face only shows your trying to appear as friendlt but in reality your rude and want others to look at you as being the "VOICE OF REASON". Now when people don't accept you as sooo much smarter than others you get pissy.
Sorry little piggy, you lose a point on this one.
-
This was an honest chance for open conversation. I still dont see anyone trying to act "macho". I believe you chose an inappropriate time and place to dust off the soap box and brush them chips off your shoulders. The most ironic part is I've never witnessed people doing what you are so passionately against. I realize it happens but not to a point that sombody could possibly build up so much sand in their vaginal cavity.
BTW to the OP. I ride all year as long as there is no ice or snow. It saves me money, I am working class and it has nothing to do with proving something.
-
I lied.I cant hold back.this is how I ride.pictures are bigger then words.

For folks who only have a scoot to ride my hats off to them for riding in any weather and getting it done. For me a scoot is just for fun, for me 45deg is the lowest and no limit on the heat. Anything below 45deg is just painful and takes away from the pleasure of the ride. Rain, ice or snow fergetabout it. Too damn dangerous for me. It's half the scoot not having traction, the other half cars not having traction and driving like idiots. To each his own there's no wrong or right on this issue just personal choices.

well said.I ride because its all I have and I only go 2 miles a day to get back and forth to work.slow and easy all the way.I stay away from trafic as much as I can keep my distance.

I f'n love this...
I get your point 100% Sam. There is a rampant "macho" attitude on other forums regarding winter riding. I also understand why you chose to address that here.
None of us really look at winter riding as a contest. Some of us do it because there is no other option, and you did point that out in the very first response you posted. I get it.
Your comments on dangerous assholes is also fair but honestly I can see how it was taken as an assault by some (008) . I post similar crap that no one appreciates... re: speeding/splitting lanes, ect.
This is the FIRST time I have seen any of our group go at each other. It has to stop or I am turning the car around, and no one gets anything for dinner.
)8, you know I love all you guys, and I do get the reason you posted what you did. Keep in mind that Sam is a Mason, and when the sh** hits the fan a high ranking hostage may buy a bit of time. Try not to scare him off or tip our hand just yet. He may come in handy is all I'm sayin'
Sam, don't read that last paragraph...
Max, oh Max...What can I say that you don't already know... welcome to my world. When my new Axy does show up... I'll share him w/ all of you.
-
It's funny because I have ridden my scooters off road, across rivers, and have been car less for ten years. Lived in TX, OR, NM, HI, and CO. Most people in Denver who ride bikes tell me it's possible to ride year round. Most cagers don't think so. The scooter's lower center of gravity and wide tires make it easy to ride. Like I said I ride when possible, up to 1/2 inch of snow it's ok, the weight and good tires make it possible. I do see some motorcyclist ride also, but I think the scooter offers great weather protection with the appropriate gear. After about a week of the same temperatures you get used to the cold.
-
Closer to the ground is the key IMHO. Less distance to fall, and the walk thru style offers a quicker escape route.
If anyone see's Sam riding down the road... Jump off your bike, and watch his reaction.

08087, wow, you try to sound like the voice of reason sweeti-pie but with your name calling, you show yourself an idiot. Dry your tears cry baby and hug your boyfriend and get over it. I assume you are a girl?
This was about the insanity of riding in cold and dangerous conditions and then some of you internalized it to be an attack on you personally. No names were mentioned at all. Like Mommy told you, it's all about you dumpling!
Grow up scooter kid's and MAN up, if possible.
You 08087, hide behind your anonymity and post like you have balls because you can act tough in front of your keyboard and impress your 'following.' A typical liberal.
Sam:)
By the way,' PORKIE' was the name of my first Harley Davidson Electra Glide.
Sorry little piggy wiggy, I'm far from a lib and I thought you said it was all a joke, now you were trying to make a point? Well which is it? Seems the joker has his panties in a bunch now, Sam....is that short for Samantha? Wiggle your nose and disappear little piggy wiggy.
When you come down off your high horse I'll allow you to talk to me again, for now your on block. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D Who's laughing now?

No offence but when you directly call people stupid if they ride in slick conditions, some people are gonna take take the wrong way, as if your name calling. Some folks have what they have, maybe just a scooter and no means in a struggling economy to buy multiple bikes, and cars. You say "simply buy used car." But to some of us that's the exact reason why we're on scooters in the first place, even if the car is only $500 there's still at least $100 a month insurance, high gas prices, and having to park a car "just in case its cold". I wanted to stay quiet in this but your attack on 08 was childish and not the definition of manning up. Also what does any of this have to do with political belief? That sir, is typical Republican behavior.

Nice try, reasoning with him, but I tried being nice and reasonable with my first response and got zippo for it, actually got kicked in the nuts, so the gloves are off. Good of you to try but somehow I doubt it will work, of course he could go for the reverse phycology route (spelling) and come out all Mr. wonderful and stuff.

Fresh drink in hand... 8)
-
I just made some popcorn, and poured a drink. Let the games begin...
I just pulled up my chair to the screen, got my drink. This forum is always entertaining! (Maybe I should use some smileys here.... :) ;) :D ;D >:( :( :o 8) ??? ::) :P :-[ :-X :-\ :-* :'( ...... yeah, that should be all of them.)
-
We could really use some more descriptive smilies here. One of my distillation forums has a couple hundred.
The smiles w/ Jedi laser swords or the ones w/ Machine guns would be perfect here.
-
I was talking BEHAVIOR and mentioned NO NAMES. If any took it personally then so be it as it must have hit home. If I didn't care about the safety situation of riding in the snow, ice and cold, in traffic, I could have just been silent or congratulated the folk's that have to do so for their daring and extreme dedication to 'being in the wind.' We have lots of 'black ice' around here, loose snow and just sheet ice caused by the snowplows scraping the snow down to the ice, making driving perilous for even 4x4's like mine, more less a scooter. I realize that some of you may be forced to ride because the scoot is your only transportation but just be careful. 8)
You don't have to mention names, you made a comment and others here have mentioned that they ride in snow and ice conditions, so your comment would be pointed at them as well as any others that had not declared themselves riders in the white.
08087, if you had someone you cared for and they mentioned that they rode in ice or snow, would you mention it at all or as the all knowing voice of reason just sigh and keep it to yourself? No, I think that even you would say something. :'(
Now, you can continue to hide behind your keyboard, in your rented brownstone in Jersey and type out your vitriolic nonsensical diatribe in your anonymity and be all macho and tough with your name calling all day and it still won't hide the fact that your communication skills aren't there, if when you find yourself at a loss of words, you resort to name calling and 'picking on' screen names. Study 'Rhetoric' in your plentiful spare time and learn how to debate without falling into your childish emotions. Have a nice day and dry your tears. ::)
Don't cry for me Argentina as I'll be fine. 8)
Sam ;)
Of course I'd have something to say, just not in the way you went about it. That was pointed out in my very first post, trying to reason with you to use some tact, you didn't seem to get it, oh well.
I don't hide behind my keyboard, several members here know where I live and if your man enough to pay me a visit I'll tell you where you can find me, but I doubt you'll make the trip, maybe not man enough??? I don't live in a brownstone, and I don't rent either, I own my home, matter of fact I own 2 homes and 2 investment properties too, need a place to live, did your mom through you out yet? JJ of course.
If memory serves me you were the one to call names of others in the OP, but maybe I'm mistaken, but I doubt it, I'll go back and read it again. (Macho, ego and STUPID) aren't name calling your right! LOFL!
No emotion on my part, just a simple attempt to show you there might be a better way of getting your valid point across, you failed to or were so egotistical to recognize I was trying to assist.
Now read my signature and have a laugh at yourself, take a deep breath and realize you've made a mistake just as I have. I realize you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. Good day sir.

Wow....if I drink beer I would open another but coffe is ok for me.almost makes me wana do some name calling.but im better then that.......I love watching cats fight.now bring in the dogs.......lol
-
Your signature says it all.
Your attempt to correct me Sensei was very condescending like you were the great mediator and you would scold someone for opinions that you don't agree with or like.
You did it again, challenging me to come to New Jersey, Satan's den and somehow you'd be victorious, knowing that it won't happen. If it did you'd pee your pants sweetie. People that act tough and challenge others from 2,500 miles away are very insecure and foolish.
Using slang like: LOFL, shows your childish and sinful nature. Grow up boy. How old are you anyway, 12?
If you were just being nice and wanted to discuss my views on this subject all you had to do was PM me and we could have maybe had a nice conversation. I think you knew that but thought you'd just try to rattle the 'New' guy. Good but ineffective try bubba.
Funny, I see all kinds of crap discussed here and only a little has to do with scooter's per se. Bad language, glorifying drugs and alcohol use etc and that's just fine with some of you Folks.
Anyway, enjoy your mental aberration and fantasy and troll for someone else to practice your negotiation skills on and 'do what you do and not what you say.'

How would I know you coming to NJ would never happen, for all I know you live around the corner. Your the pone with all the bluster of me being safe in NJ, well that sounds like someone being passive aggresive, that would be you.
So if you want to find me I'm not affraid of letting you know where I can be found.
What amazes me in all this is from you and you haven't even acknowledged that I agreed with your observation of how some people are taking unneeded risk riding in the snow.
Sounds like others were right when they said you have a chip on your shoulders.

TS1, what that shows is that less riders are on the road in the winter months hence, less accidents.
Around here, in SW Missouri, from about the middle of November until about the middle of March, there are very few riders on the road but the other months or when it gets warmer, there are bikes everywhere.
I just know that I've seen soooo many drivers, slide through intersections at stop signs and traffic lights and slide or roll into ditches at even slow speeds.
Now imagine the traction available on two wheels on city streets, with traffic around.
I've been riding for 52 years and the Xciting 500RI ABS is my 77th bike/ scoot and I ridden and toured all over the United States, raced semi-pro in deserts, Baja and all kinds of race tracks, ISDT and enduro and trials events and I know the dynamics of traction or the lack thereof. My opinions are mine.

I can't figure out exactly what all those numbers mean, can you shed any light on it?
I'm wondering if winter weather has fewer riders thus fewer crashes, or are these numbers based on number of miles/Kilo per accident?
Thought I'd add this clip of what slick roads can do, to anything.

Your new name is Pissy. Oh lord this is great. At least Zombie picked up on it. You charged into a topic and angrily condemed and judged others with such skill that you turned everyone against you. The best part was when you tried to bully 08 and just came out looking like a fool. No no wait the funniest part was when you hid behind your keyboard and made childish bully like comments while accusing sombody else of doing something similar even though you instigated it. Please continue. Maybe I cant pitch this to Fox and get this comedy on the air.

I'm sure Porky's a good guy, (not really sure) but I'm trying here. I won't throw any more blows in this thread, but look at the bright side, he did get his post count up a little. He's not near where this attention whore is yet but a few more threads like this who knows.
Peace to all, including my new friend Porky (Sam) (I hope we're friends).

Absolut numbers, not relative to kilometres (this data is only yearly).
May be that there are fewer riders in winter. Maybe vice versa. Prove your claim at court!
Our officers have strict rules of conduct - based on facts. Pull a gun (still not firing) and you will have to generate a document. Shoot a child and you'll be lucky if you get another chance as a doorman. Our citizens know that and don't pull a gun either.
(Some hard core criminals of course ... 7 dead officers in the last 10 years. Sadly enough, but obviously not the major cause of death.)
(Shall we switch the topic to "gun lobby"? Trying to keep the fire burning. ;D )

To be accurate you need to compare numbers per distance driven.
Now about that gun lobby stuff, if it's pro gun lobby I don't need them as I have a God given right to own a gun, man cannot legislate a fire arm out of my hands.
I don't know what country you’re in/from but in the US it is my right not my privilege.
It is also my obligation as a citizen to uphold the constitution of the USofA. Part of that is supporting the right to bear arms. Besides, it helps keep the tyrants at bay.
How do you feel about that?

"New Jersey, Satan's den" That's to f'n funny to let go!
Cursing/drugs/drinking are topics I know something about. Just as much as I have always known Satan lives in Lodi, N.J. I forgot what this thread was about.
It really should ba apparent that the "scooter aspect of this forum is the purpose/focus of conversation but what make this forum shine is the fact that there are no gangs of bullies nor is there any true distain for anyone elses opinion.
We all accept the fact that we do have different ways of looking at things, and at least some small part of every opinion has some value or has something new to consider.
I can only imagine what the world could be if we all teamed up at some arena for a month of solving problems, and had a concrete format to implement OUR designs.
I've never seen this on any other forum. The rest either gang up, or play phony "kiss ass" games.
You guys are all REAL, and are here to help for the better. (even my dogs fight amongst each other from time to time but when push come to shove, they are a team.)
You guys are my first/ best choice for a pack to run with.

This is good that you have your passions for your bikes. This is some of the best entertainment I have enjoyed on a forum. I love Zombie with his jokes. Live and let live is what I say. Here in Vegas, we do not get as cold as those in the mid-west and north eastern states such as my home state of New York by way of NYC. The last time Las Vegas, NV had any snowfall was in December of 2008. The whole city that day literally came to stand still. We get rain, but nobody knows how to drive and ride and in snow. Love you guys. 8) ;D :P :-X :D

I had to laugh about someone looking to post on weather, and coming across all of us! I wonder if Skad has pulled out all of his hair, or is in some sort of therapy cause of us?

I , also ,I am a girl and DAMN PROUD OF IT !! I probably keep my cool better than you (have to working in the psychiatric Field )and I'm willing to bet I have more cojones than you .
So , can you find more people to insult and put down in order to boost your own narcissistic ego ?
Good luck... I truly feel sorry for you if this is all that makes you happy .
Have to enter at least one emote just for you :'(

I will not get into politics since this is not the place to discuss politics. If we all knew our political leanings, none of us would post much on here. Politics tears people apart. Bluesin, I respect your liberal leanings. Porkie, I respect yours as well. Not all consevatives are narcisstic. We respect women and do not look down on them. Consevatives are good, decent people. Now onto discussing our passion for the best scooters on the planet. 8)

Sam (porky) and myself have buried the hatchet, mine in his back and his in my head, JJ of course. We reached out to one another via PM and now have a better understanding of the other.
For the record, I'm conservative myself, but I'm not blind to the social needs of others.
Carry on my friend(s)? (I don't want to assume I have more than one)
Have a great Thanksgiving!

Conservatives are the most compassionate folks on the planet, they provide jobs so liberals can eat.

Sorry , guys, couldn't bite my tongue any longer to the insults (especially to girls/women) . I got tired of seeing the name calling and childish rants , as well .This was my first post in this conversation ( it was already 3 pages long ) .
Some people have such a convoluted sense of what life is truly about ( our brothers,neighbors,sisters,friends, etc . ) that it seems they are unhappy unless they are unhappy .
David- I , in no way , tried to classify all Conservatives (many of my best friends are Conservatives ) ...only the one I was addressing.Nor do I believe that all Conservatives are blind to the needs of others .
I , actually , do not consider myself one or the other...I just believe in The Golden Rule .
I wish you all a warm and safe Thanksgiving and hope ALL can remember what they are REALLY thankful for .
I , also , believe we are all equal . Twowhell...No conservative has EVER provided me witha job...I worked for every one.Trickle-Down is a proven failure.
kärlek

What would be the political affiliation of a fella that thinks the Christian god never existed, and everything should be split on a barter system?
I think I'm a Jew.
