Well, another 12C (54F) sunny day here. Sadly, it'll hit -1C (30F) tonight and only get up to 10C (50F) during the day.... Bigsmile

Took the XR for a nice ride yesterday in the sun- now everything is white and it's coming down fast...

Edited to add:  Snow day!  Time to get out the snowmobiles.  If I can't ride one I might as well ride the other.

nah... been at it for 20 years and the only injury I've had was a broken shoulder (although I did finish off a torn ACL skiing but it was a M/C that did the original damage). Our littel ski area is not tto bad www.terrypeak.com you can get setup good enough equipment for less than $1000 and a season pass is $280. way cheaper than riding Wink Smile  plus I never have to complain about snow Bigsmile

Snowing like a bastard up here. F* old man Winter.
Cold and blustery too to boot.  Thumbsdown Thumbsdown Thumbsdown

No C10 for me over the weekend.  Sad

Now I really want that TW200 I was thinking about. I bet that little bitch would do the snow quite well.

Got 2 commutes in this week, yesterday and today. Yesterday was a pretty good soaker coming in in the morning.
It was hairy getting the pig out of the shed, down the ramp and onto the dirt driveway as there was snow and ice all over the place from the weekend.

Today, it's just muddy. Bike is a dirty, filthy SOB. I was shut down on the bike for a full week and a couple days.

Well shit. We just had the 1st decent snowfall of the season over the weekend and now it's gonna be back up in the 60's and sunny. At this rate, I'll never get any good snowboarding in this year.   Sad

At least the riding has been good.  Bigsmile
