    Cold first weekend?

    What do you guys normally do to keep the bikes from freezing up if it gets below freezing at night? As it is, i'm going to wait until the night before i leave for the first race weekend to flush out the antifreeze and add water and water wetter, i'm just a little concerned with things freezing up.
    Thanks

    Just drain it out and fill it back up or just leave antifreeze in it and don't crash!

    You can put it in my trailer. The volume alone will keep it above freezing for a few days.

    I'd wait to worry.

    I'll bring a couple of cans of Sterno for ya!

    Maybe you should bring a teddybear and a electric blanket and you will be fine!!
