It is very tempting and arguably sensible to put your pride and joy to a comfortable, safe bed over the winter months and bring him/her out again in the Spring, looking pristine, to enjoy for the six or seven 'rideable' months of the year... and nothing wrong with that!
However, stubborn swines like me who don't want the fun to stop for almost half the year, need to adapt to the conditions and take steps to ensure that our bikes and ourselves are protected and up for the job. For me this means adapting my riding to the conditions, wearing appropriate gear etc... For the bikes it means correct tyres and pressures etc. and, to ensure that they look as good in the Spring as the ones that have been tucked away, it means rust protection and a solid washing, drying and maintenance plan.
And the best way that I have found of doing that is to wash and dry my bikes thoroughly and to treat them at the start of every Winter with ACF 50. This video shows how I go about doing that.
Here are links to ACF 50 and the bike/pet dryer that I use:
