Winter wheels? What are winter wheels? What's winter? Ah, it's the good riding season when it's not excruciatingly hot!


Here many people ride their cars in the summer because they have A/C in the car and it's just too hot on the bike. Only now you start seeing bikes in greater numbers. I did ride my bike every day, but I must admit some days at noon, not so much fun when stuck at a traffic light.

Well, not everything is perfect, but on occasion, I like to rub it in


I typically do not work on Fridays (except when I do...) and I go have lunch with my better half. She works about 20 miles from home and most of it is that road on the island between the sound and the gulf of Mexico. Can't really imagine a more pleasant ride, except if there were some turns! She gets to drive that road twice a day, maybe not as much fun for her as it is for me, but it sure beats city traffic.

Your username Didier is french?

Yes, it is my name too. I was born in France. I came to the US as an adult. It sounded like a good idea at the time...

I am using this, XJ600, had it since 1989. Ride it all through the winter, coated with ACF-50. Showing it's age, but should last a little longer.

That looks like a great bike for the winter. Stainless pipes as well :thumbup

[Anquetil]

Thanks, Nick. The Motad pipes rotted last year and they no longer make them. I was fortunate to find these from Sandy Bike Spares who were very helpful when I rang them, and I had them the following day. They fitted perfectly as well. The bike is comfortable to ride and I get about 60mpg on a run.
