Its the coldest winter since 30 years,<\/p>\n

for weeks there were very low temperatures deep beneath 0\u00b0\u00a0 day and night.<\/p>\n

There is snow aside of the street, and the streets are covered with sand, ice or salt.<\/p>\n

But, does this stop us riding? No, not even then!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

I pondered for a\u00a0 short time, as my Versys would be the first choice (Heat Grips\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09\u00a0 ) , but the tires? Pilot Power 3 tires are not build for temperatures below 5\u00b0 +<\/p>\n

Thats, why my decision was to take the newly transformed Enduro<\/a>, now Supermoto from junior.<\/p>\n

Some longer night session later in the cold\u00a0 shed (more details to come in one of my next posts) it was nearly ready to go.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Only the\u00a0 DB Eater wasn’t to find (no big issue\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09 \u00a0 ) , the brake light wasn’t working, but I didn’t had the intension to brake a lot, and the speedometer failed from time to time.<\/p>\n

But overall, the SM was ready to go\u00a0\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42 .<\/p>\n

Right at the first bend I did crash with my bike, due to some sand and ice at the tarmac.<\/p>\n

Ok, put it back on wheels, and on we (carefully) went.<\/p>\n

I did\u00a0 miss the first meeting point, but arrived right in time for the second one and joined the\u00a0 brave small group.<\/p>\n

And cheerfully we rode on through the hills around Viennas woods:<\/p>\n

It was freezing cold, and ice flowers growed inside the visors of our helmets, but it made a lot of fun, though. So, see you next year! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Addendum:<\/p>\n

Today, 2 days later:<\/p>\n
