Haven't seen one of these threads here yet. Like the title says, bump if you rode to work today. A picture of your bike at work is encouraged. Doesn't have to be an FZ. I'll start:
My first time to do so today. I have technically ridden to the office on a weekend before, but this was the first time riding to work for work. Nice day for a ride.
I rode to work yesterday. It was high 50s for the ride home at the end of the day. It is 12.1 miles from my driveway to the parking lot at my work, but for some reason it took me 62 miles to get home...strangest thing. lol But today winter has returned, 24 degrees for a high with freezing rain and snow mix. :-(
-3C or 27F today, 20k or 12 miles, so with heated grips and vest its not sooooo bad. But the salt in the work parking lot is the worst. Two months insurance wasted here on an unusually long winter for the Canadian SW coast. C'mon Spring!
Not many folks riding to work yet? Today was a bit cool (36 Freedoms or 2 science), but otherwise gorgeous. Supposed to be even better on the way home.
Ive been riding to work for the past 2 possible 3 weeks here in Chicago. Just been cold ranges from 25F-50F but its been sunny! Till yesterday when we got 5 inches of snow and now its supposed to rain for the next 2 weeks.....
Wow, I'm here wondering my hands are cold in 70F weather. I can't even imagine riding in the 50s with the type of gear I have. I've been trying to ride in to work everyday and just signed up for a monthly MC parking permit for a much better location. I'm hoping to continue for at least another 6 months before I have to start driving the old 4 wheeler again.
Bumping again, though I've been riding for most of the past two months. Probably going to get some tires a bit more suited for it before too long. I hear Pirelli Angel GT (I or II) are the way to go for my use case and climate.
I ride as often as I can! Except when it rains. Lol. I rode last year doing monsoon season and I was drenched to my boxers and I was like nope never gonna do that again! From mid 20s to 110+ here in Arizona I enjoy riding to work. It's only a 20 minute ride but I work 3AM to Noon so I get the nice chilly to hot as heck.
Rode in to work today, a bright 'n' sunny Cali day (after a couple of cloudy gloomy days).
Also, I had a small light-to-light drag race with my bro today. (He was on his Tesla model 3).
Even the instant electric torque rich car had no chance against the Master of Torque - 09 ?
Been riding on and off this week to work. The white powdery stuff has come a bit early this year. Today is sunny and warm, and the next week has just as much chance of snow as it does 90 degree days. Fall, man, you just never know.
Managed to ride the bike to work everyday this week. Not much going on for rain lately thank god but boy there have been some brisk rides in the morning. Thankfully works only 15-20 minutes door to door.
Yup, rode today again (as I usually do). Was just a bit cool without the liner in the jacket (53*) but the sun was out, which helped. Riding again tomorrow and probably Thur., heavy rains forecast for Wed. and Fri.
