LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

FAIR SEASON RIDERS

On the East Coast, the murmuring of "end of the riding season" has begun. As a rider, I've never understood the concept of the riding season coming to a close at the end of the summer. Don't get me wrong, Autumn and Winter mean cooler and colder weather... But that's why there is leather, and heated vests, gloves, seats, layers... long johns, etc.

I've never limited my riding to the time of year. Save snow and ice on the road, I ride all year round. Riders on the West Coast and in the South ride all year round. Why wouldn't I? Why wouldn't you? So before you put your bike away for hibernation, consider extending your riding into the cold months. Do the research and gear up with a kit to keep you warm and comfortable when riding in the cold. And if the cold to cold for you, then take a trip out West.

Stop letting the time of year dictate your time spent riding.

Thank me later.

As a recognised long-standing major motorsport player, Motul benefits from the world’s best laboratory in the most extreme racing conditions.

At the Isle of Man TT, you must fully trust your machine around bumpy and winding public roads at 330km/h. Honda has chosen Motul to lubricate their racing engines: a reward for our ingenuity and performances.

Recognised by many teams worldwide as the best racing engine oil, the 300V has inspired a wide range of engine motor oil tailored to meet the most demanding constraints of daily rides. Find the one you need on www.motul.com
