to be honest... riding in that weather is fun for me... it's a challenge... I keep it slow enough that I'm not gonna get hurt too bad... and can pick it up and keep going if I do go down.... but I have a blast (as long as I'm wearing enough layers and warm! )
Same here. When I'm really "in the zone", riding in a heavy downpour is actually kind of a rush as long as the road isn't flooding.

Ice is definitely a limit, tho- like heading through Flagstaff in March, watching all the snow melting into the roads in the last of the afternoon, sun, then seeing the temperature tick down into the low 30s... yeah, I think I'll be staying here tonite.

I'll also take the truck if the heat index is supposed to break 100 degrees... that's why I paid the big bucks for a vehicle with air conditioning.

I guess you could say that riding with groups is also a limit... won't keep me from riding, just from riding that stretch of road at that particular time.
