So how do you all do it?! How long do you typically have to store your bike?

BTW - not trying to make this a bragging thread...just asking how you don't go crazy!

I'm with ya... there's no WAY I could handle that.. not just the whole taking a vacation from riding, but the COLD.. no way, no how!

Its not easy!! Thats why i usualy sell my bike in the fall and buy a new (to me) one in the spring just so i wont be tempted all winter to ride when i know i shouldnt! I'd love to live in cali or fla! where I could ride all year!

Actually, the winters make it a little easier for me. Because I don't HAVE a bike. Been without one for almost 3 years now.

If you think i'm jonesing for a bike now, just imagine what it would be like if I lived in a warm location year round.
