Done for the Season

I was out raking leaves in the yard this morning, I get all my neighbours leaves blowing down the street on my lot because of where my lot sits on the cresent. I got finished just as the snow started to fall. Then I cleared some stuff out of my garage because its a constant mess in there. By the time I was done that there was a fullblown snowstorm coming down. We have about 6" on the ground now within about 4 hours. I think I'll be taking the truck to work for the next few months from now on.

Sure hate to hear that Steve. I haven't ridden in a couple of days but I will get some riding in this month. We normally have a few days that it warms up enough to take at least short trips.

Man Steve that sucks.......the snow we had is long gone here on the coast. But it'll be back. I would have been out riding today/this weekend had I
#1 had the bike back from the shop from being fixed from the accident
#2 my G'd damn knee was back to normal from operation.
It might have well snowed.

with temps staying in the 30s for the next 10 days and a possible snow storm on Sunday, It might be over except for a short run to gas them up and dump seafoam in. :(

I did that on Friday. 38F and sunny with no wind. I thought I would just pop down to the gas station, but couldn't quite bring my self to come straight home. I was out just riding around close to 2 hours. Glade I did, Sat turned cold with a dusting of snow, and tonight we are getting a major dumping with high winds.

You need a second bike and a knee brace like Max Rockatansky.

Just having this reconstructive surgery won't allow me to ride. Even with a brace, and I have a couple of them. I still need my bike out of the shop too ponch. The knee isn't the only weak thing here. My wallet won't allow me to have a second bike. {good idea though} No snow here on the "wet coast" ..... at least not this minute.
