Cold weather riding.

Had a pleasant ride out this afternoon, had been getting stir crazy not having ridden for a couple of days. Red Commander on the open road running at 79 degrees, not enough to open the thermostat so did not have the benefit of heat flowing back from the radiator.Derek F.

Funny I had the similar problem on my AJS 16MS the other day the rad had no effect at all and it was only running on one cylinder too..... never mind I bet my T150 will only run on three after all of the weather if I am lucky .... Stir crazy.. ME..!!!

Not as crazy as the Guzzi rider I saw on Friday in Basingstoke making his way through 3 inches of snow. No surprise really as all Guzzi riders are crazy.

I had the same thing John riding back from Colchester Military Town to home in the snow, I stopped in the drive and my legs failed to go down from the pegs and then a big bang as I laid out on the drive either waiting for frost bite or the big thaw lol Brown paper down your leathers DOES NOT WORK..
