Here in the PNW, that would limit our vintage bike riding to 3 months. Fenders are where it's at.
Some people have a rainy day bike in their quiver. I have a sunny day bike, the rest are all weather. Here's Bob Freeman not afraid to take a show quality Jack Taylor Tour of Britain bike on a 3 day winter tour. He has over 100 vintage bikes in his collection, all in impeccable order. Outside of the ones with wood rims, he'll ride most of them anytime, rain or shine.
Besides, this thread needed more purdy pics of purdy bikes.
