March 3, 200422 yr we had a little snow fall in the north east of england this week. only six or seven inches but my footrests were filling up with snow and freezing. couldn't keep my feet on them. i have a gas gas with hebo footrests usually really good. any suggestions for improvement?
March 3, 200422 yr Warmer sock? A stick to flick the snow off? I doubt there will be many suggestions for riding in snow as we have such little amounts, try asking JTT, he does snow racing, he'll proberbly have some good tips for keeping warm.
March 4, 200422 yr Over here in the Colonies, we have LOTS of experience with riding in the snow - You do have the best footpegs, and about the only suggestion I have is to spray your pegs with a de-icer before you go out - I use a product called Opti Pro which won't be able to get in the UK - but you may have luck using WD 40.
March 4, 200422 yr I ride in the snow all the time - it's good practise with low traction and you can practise for ages without getting too hot. I use WD40 to stop it sticking so bad, but then push the peg up with my foot against its spring, and let it fly back down. This usually releases the ice/snow.
