As above, we have hard winters in Poland, with lots of snow and ice. Temps in our area have been down to minus 10 in the day and minus 20 overnight for ten days, though it's now above zero again. Roads here are not especially well maintained, so there are lots of little potholes and such, making roads bumpy for the best of cars, never mind motorbikes. Generally, you must keep your wits about you - concentrate - as there are sudden reductions in the speed limit, poor drivers and left turns from what you might think is the "overtaking" lane.
But loads of people ride scooters and bikes, quads too.
However, in practice, people do it all the time. Myself included.

does anyone ride offroad in poland? ive visited some beautifull forests near lodz, which i believe are probably government owned , lots of clear pathways , no people around -looks just great for a bit of off road motorcyling. on some bylanes in the uk - you can do just that , how does it work in poland? i asked my polish g/f about trying the same thing - she doesnt know ...
Had the same thoughts myself. Not much left in Blighty now. I've seen a few 4 wheel drives in the forests but I guess if the rozzers catch you it's going to be expensive.
Quite. Like those night racers that you used to get in Warsaw who seemed immune from arrest until the police finally stopped them. Roaring round town at 2am through quiet suburbs.
