Gearing up for the Cold
As we roll forward through the season and times as well as leaves change, it's important for all of us to remember a few key aspects of riding in the changing conditions. One of the goals of NCS is to help provide a safer atmosphere for safer rides, and during these climate changes, please try and keep safe and enjoy the holidays!
NCS IS
Try and remember to:
Check your tire pressure frquently. Changing pressure and cold tires are one of the main ways riders are caught off gaurd in teh changing seasons. Also please wear your gear, jackets are replacable, your skin is a little tougher to replace!

While you're packing or gearing up for your ride, remember to take a snack along, or with the greater chances of showers that the fall brings perhaps a plastic bag to keep your electronic valuebles from getting wet and ruined.
Also remember to layer up up in the cold, some nice under armor or remembering to get that liner back into that jacket before that evening ride can make life a lot more comfortable, but a tucked in magazine or bit of news paper inside your jacket can help out in a pinch. |
|
| Other inexpensive tips include installing things like grip warmers or getting a solid pair of winter gloves to keep your hands warmer in the cold, allowing for more alert and comfortable riding.
We have hundreds of folks with thousands of great ideas for ways to stay safer and warmer inside our forums, so come on in, introduce yourself, and make some new friends and riding buddies. |

| Let's try and do all we can to keep the holidays safe, fun, and happy for all of our NCSrs and their loved ones! |
