Ha! You call that a snow fall? :poke: When I was back in Minnesota last February I drove through twice that in the F-150, two wheel drive.

But I also had on Ice & Snow tires with the Blizzak rating. Worked real well. Especially when I left and I-35 had a thick layer of ice on it. Helps to have the right equipment and some skills.

No joke on the heart attacks. Apparently the shoulder movements with the weight really raises the blood pressure and folks with a stressed circulatory system - not just seniors - and people should be careful.

What the heck are you gonna do for the next few days ferret..? I’m picturing you sitting on the bike up on the center stand in the garage, running through the gears while visualizing a dry open road in front of you lol.

Well I missed Sun, Mon and Tues, but got it got up to 40 yesterday and 46 today and all the ice melted, so I got out for a 42 mile ride. Granted it was raining the whole time, but it felt good to ride again lol.

Sounds like the day (or two) after you retire from riding you are going to get the sweats and shakes. Better keep something nearby with two wheels and a gasoline motor between them.
