Was wondering, as the season here has fast come to an end what does one do when they are having severe road withdrawl.

.....or say sod it, bundle up, don wet weather gear and go for a ride.......I will ride year round rain or shine.....however, I do draw the line at snow....I am not as young as I used to be and don't bounce anymore when I drop....just land with a sickening wet thud and lie there for a wee bit.
Always ask why.

Here in Kansas I can ride almost year round.
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

Always wear a helmet, eye protection, and protective clothing. Never ride under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Well while it is not a permanent fix it should help with the withdrawals. (For added realism place a fan in front of the treadmill)
