I can't help but feel sorry for everyone that woke up today knowing that all those beautiful roads, highways and byways are all going to be coated, buried, covered and frozen solid with snow - ice - sleet - freezing rain - slush - frozen slush with deep tire tracks through it.....

:icon_laughing:

Sorry.... not sorry

But I will make it up to you because I'm such a great guy. Im going to do my best to take a pic at least once a week of my Sunday ride to the ocean/coast. Just a heads up, it will probably be sunny, warm, beautiful weather, with beautiful west coast hotties getting in the shot.
It might not melt the snow outside but it might keep the riding fire going till your roads see warm and dry again.
Any way, feel free to make requests - no promises but I will keep the camera with me. I might even take to the bicycle trails to get some "close ups"... always with permission, thats the fun part, asking for selfies with a pretty lady!! :icon_mrgreen:

Don't tell your Mrs. :icon_laughing:

Ya 26 degrees here today and looked like a snowglobe all day too,lol. Black ice everywhere. Already heard of a few accidents here and there.

I'm ready. Summer tools drained. Snowblower upfront,starting and at the ready. Hunkering down till april/may.

Did squeeze out a ride to work wednesday nite. Rode home it as 29 degrees....i was toasty. Winter jacket,fff helmet,chaps and gautlet gloves.

Road surface was user friendly.

What the heck is a snowblower. Not some sort of sex toy for old farts is it?

The old man had a legendary machine -
not much by today's standards but back in the day it was truly badass.

8 HP electric start/plug in 110vac Yardman.
It was the biggest most powerful the store had that day.
He got it not for him to run but for me.
He didn't understand why I wasn't as happy as him until he expalined that it would be easier for me to clear the driveway but IF I didn't want it - it could go back and I could go back to my snow shovel.
At that point I was happier than him.
AND after I got the hang of it, I got to use it for my brand new sidewalk snow removal service for the next door neighbors :icon_laughing:
