The temperature has gotten up into the 50's the last couple of days. But the roads were recently heavily salted due to freezing temps last week and problems with freezing fog, etc. There is still a lot of residual salt and sand on the roads - and the street I live on is particularly bad. I have white tire tracks on my driveway from the cars tracking salt in from the street.
As tempting as it has been to ride, I haven't, because I don't want to get the salt on my fairly new bikes. But I have seen a few other riders out.
Am I being overly cautious? I know that I am not going to want to thoroughly wash the bike after riding - it is not that warm out. Any opinions from others in the cold climate states?
