I've noticed a few reports of 'offs' over the last 10 days or so as a result of ice. On saturday morning, I had a bit of a moment, also, I believe, as a result of black ice. It has made me wonder how you hardened 'all weather riders' prepare or adapt your bikes for the winter weather. There are alot of asides commenting on how the rider had prepared themselves for the cold and wet, but I have not seen anyone giving advice about how you prepare your bikes. As a leisure rider, I would only go out on two wheels if it where unavoidable, and only then over very short distances, during bad spells of weather, but you guys seem to take for granted and you will just ride anyway. I would be interested to know what you do to make it possible in terms of hardwear, rather than softwear, if you see what I mean.
