You are much braver than I am. I am retired, so I only ride for pleasure. My spring and fall rides are a minimum of 55F in the morning and 60+F in the afternoon. In late October I had to wait until 10 or 11 AM to get started. But half a comfortable ride is better than long cold one.
My EX is under a dust cover in the garage, and the battery in the basement. It will be May before I can ride again. My fresh air and sunshine will be my daily walks on the local nature trail until then. Fortunately I have other hobbies that will keep me busy in the winter.

That sounds a like lot me. I'm also retired and ride for pleasure when and where I like.
I'm able to wheel the CB inside my basement for the winter where it's warm and dry. That's where it is now.
If I'm lucky it will be mid-April before it's fit to ride again.
I too have other hobbies and interests that I can turn to in the winter.
I'm the secretary/treasurer of a 149 member vintage bike club and I spend quite a bit of time keeping the club on the straight and narrow all year long
