Hi Chris and Lorenzo,

> do, but sometimes a bit of Bike Romance is welcome!

To me it doesnīt seem like "Bike Romance" bit quite an intolerant and 
arrogant point of view.
"Only all-season-bikers are good bikers". I donīt appreciate that.
I tend more to "live and let live" (or better "ride and let ride").

Imagibne, in some regions of Europe itīs not possible to ride all 
year. I once crashed in autumn, cause a little part of the road was 
icy (and almost died), so I decided to drive never again in bad 
weather conditions like that. 

Moreover, Iīm a student and Iīm glad that I can afford to ride an @ 
at least 6 to 8 months a year...

I like that feelings, too!
 
Ciao, 

Marco
