TOOT 5 min commute in 22 mins!

(guess I'll have a firsthand account of just how well the Road 2's deal with the wet. They're supposed to be terrific, but we'll see...)

w0...brrrrrrr...0t

Well that was fun. Forgot to get gas this morning when it was nice and warm, almost got creamed leaving the parking lot, the visor didn't have a fog issue it was the pile up of snow that made for a blurry ride home.

Driving home tonight, as I always do with the first snow.... too many stoooopid fuxers out there. I feel much safer in 7000 pounds of truck than I do on a bike during the first snow....

Just cold rain for my 2.8 mile ride in this afternoon. Drying up so gotta ride some at midnight.

fasterlaster · Tue Nov 9th, 2010, 09:00 PM

That's really all that was on the ground, so they were fine. Not like I was going that fast or riding aggressively though

My clear glasses what I wear under the helmet started fogging up & so between seeing around them and constantly clearing snow off of my face shield, the worst part of the drive was just not being able to see.

Next round due in on Thursday. Maybe it will really snow.

longrider · Wed Nov 10th, 2010, 05:57 PM

Do you count 1 to 3 inches as really snowing??

FZRguy · Wed Nov 10th, 2010, 06:21 PM

We got nothing in Lakewood.

CaptGoodvibes · Wed Nov 10th, 2010, 06:33 PM

Just booked an appointment for laser eye surgery... that should take care of the snow in my path.

So, I just booked an appointment to have a heat-ray installed.
