Snow, Ice, and Salt oh my

The OCD is screaming at me that I have to completely dismantle, clean & relube everything now! Has to happen to one of them to paint the frame- I'm hoping that scratches the itch. But man, road salt is a sin on so many levels.
I l live in Durango and I finished building my Moto-Gugie around Christmas 2021 and I took photos outside when we have snow 99% of the time. This bike won't see any snow, ice, or salt.

Because of its rarity, I'm counting on this bike becoming a valuable commodity that I can cash in and buy that grass hut in Tahiti when I retire ( gugie )
