But if you take it out mine will be in the garage on its own and get lonely.

I used to put mine away for the winter but as we dont really have winters anymore i dont bother becasue its a pain de winterising it when we have a nice day.

My real problem is that i dont have any decent winter kit and neither does Lynn. I think if you can keep warm then the state of he roads is less of an issue. When you get cold your concentration starts to go and its just gets really nasty.

On balance i think that as long as its not raining or snowing or icy then you should take it out. Stick to the bigger roads then leaves and mud wont be a problem. Just be aware that the wind chill factor will get you quicker than you realise and its horrid knowing you still have to ride 20 miles to get home and you can't stop shivering.
