Snow advisory tomorrow from 3 PM - after midnight for southeast WI and I think much of NE IL. Accumulations of up to three inches by Thurs. morning. I work until around 4 PM Wednesday and I'm gonna roll the dice! I'm riding to work. The streak continues!

My kid got an A on a math test so I told him I would take him out for dinner. We put 100 miles just riding. This thing that amazes me is the number of people that drive with no lights on.
They are driving newer vehicles so I know thety have to actually turn off the DRL's With the fog and misting rain just lookign for an accident and I would think the insurance co would hold them partially liable.

This thing that amazes me is the number of people that drive with no lights on.
This definitely adds to the challenges we (one) face(s) when riding during inclement weather.
I was nearly run off the road last evening while returning home from work. A driver made a lane change, complete with signal, then moved into the left lane without thoroughly checking his/her mirror. I was in the process of passing the minivan on the left when I suddenly found myself on the shoulder with horn-a-tootin'. Thankfully the shoulder was paved and I escaped unscathed yet again. BTW, the van HAD its lights on - I just wanted to share (cuz it was rainy).

Well, so far today's weather in Milwaukee was all bark. I rode and only got wet. I was kind of hoping for a bit more drama.
