I was wondering when was everyone's limit on cold and riding???
Personally, it's not so much the cold, as it is the crud that makes the roads treacherous. Down to freezing, no problem, but I do Plug in for anything below 50º for extended periods of time....
Out here they have already salted the roads, how do you year round riders deal with the salt. for me washing the bike in the cold after a freezing a++ ride takes the wind out of my sales every time.
I'll ride on salty roads as long as I can get the bike reasonably clean afterwards.
Of late, I've taken to using the self-service car washes to clean the bikes.
For a few bucks you can power wash your machine in a few minutes.
Heck, I often do this even in nice weather.
Just be sure to carry a towel to wipe the seat dry.
