I've been checking the weather on an hourly basis, I'm planning on riding to Toronto on my bike this weekend. Working on the best way to pack my kilt as I will be attending the opera Saturday night. Monday I will be buying leather for a customers kilt (I'm trying to make this kilt related as much as possible.)
Once the bike is put away for winter I plan to do the maintenance whilst wearing my work kilt
Thanks for the replies gents, it seems I'm not alone in a passion for two wheels.

You Canadians have been kind enough to share some of your embracing fall weather (including a few flakes) with those of us in Minnesota this past week. Just finished tucking the boat in for the winter. I guess I'll put away the lightweight kilts as well. Tweeds and 16 oz. wool are looking pretty good for the next few months.

I can say that my P/V is getting worn less than my 16oz wool these days. Even 5-yards of heavy wool is nippy at times! A tank may be in the future down the road...

Certainly not alone in your passion for two wheels. Fortunately where I livee I can enjoy two wheels AND kilts all year - just not as a simultaneous activities. 
We do have four seasons here at the beach (in Delaware) but there are plenty of days in the 50s and 60s in the winter months.
If you are too busy to laugh, you are too busy.

The bike is snow adverse:

and so am I when it comes to two wheels. Of course, if you want to emulate Robert and his imitation of a popsicle, well......
By the way Robert, you look cold, damn cold.

Ok. I am going to ask. How in the heck do you manage to ride kilted? I have a Road King Classic and am looking for ideas. I ride the bike everywhere, I have a care, I just prefer to ride unless I have to use it, so it would be kind of a pain in the neck to ride in jeans and change into the kilt.

Haven't figured it out yet, at least not on a cruiser. If someone has found an answer, please share.

I bought some 65lb magnets from Home Depot (http://www.homedepot.com/p/Super-Mag...80HD/202639939), and it seemed like it would work until I trued to use the foot brake. There's just not enough slack in the front to keep the magnet on the right side attached to the gas tank. The left side (shifter) worked fine.
