$160 to ride a ski lift to the top a couple of times in a day? I could see $30 or $40. Dang ..... glad I don't ski.

Heck, even with today's gas prices I couldn't burn that amount on a full day of riding from morning to night. Man, throw in some grub and maybe still cannot reach that amount.

So what is the day's choice? Riding a motorcycle, or ... skiiing? Ride? Or ski? Ride? ... or ski? Difficult decision? No.

Wow! I don't remember it from the film, and I would ride-ski that Budapest bike in a New York second! Very cool.

Otherwise, choice? Comparing motorcycling and skiing is like comparing sex and sex. My answer is yes.

(Incidentally, all of them can share words like riding, positioning, bumps, protection, finesse, grace, speed, power, curves, boots, beauty, views, thrills, danger, wax, and leather.)

Oh yeah, this is a weather thread.. -5 deg F coming soon. No moto this week.

Preferrably not. The imagination is a wonderful thing.

i broke down and drove a car today....the combination of mid 40s and rain in the morning for the third day in a row just broke my resolve.

Meanwhile in the heartland, we awoke to -35 wind chill and blowing snow.
So with apologies to GO and Ferret, no riding for me today.
