I guess we're in for the driest winter in history then.

Come on guys/gals, anyone fancy getting their bikes out and cracking on with the winter riding.....I'm lonely.

What do you mean some of us are still riding everyday??
Maybe not out of town in the winter though any more cos I own a car for that now.

Definately good deals to be had this time of year. I bought my 04reg GSX-R 600 a month ago with 5.5k on for £3600. Most were up for £4200ish.

Using it most days, but avoiding riding when the roads are wet or its raining, it's not enjoyable and the bike constantly needs cleaning.
