Snow, don't do it!
« on: December 29, 2009, 05:06:25 PM »
So, all you internet people, it just started snowing here in Portland.  That means that every road is to be treated as "off road," and that means the Husky got to take a spin!  And then I locked the front wheel with the brake and half a tank of pre-mix spilled all over the road thanks to my shitty gas cap, leaving a big blue puddle for the neighborhood kids to play with.  I love the snow.


Is this Maico a 440 or only a 400?  Well in all the confusion, I forgot myself.
But considering this is a 1978 Magnum, the best-handling bike in the world, you have to ask yourself one question.
Do you feel lucky, punk?

Snow is ok, it just gets old quicker when I don't have a bike. :( Oh well maybe I can save up to get my old bike back.

As long as it's fresh snow it's a blast. That old, crusty crap...that's a little different.

It snowed for three hours, built up a few inches, and was 100% gone by the next morning.

hey, to those of you who don't have snow, or have little snow, be grateful, I have 2.5 feet of snow, and sometimes more in parts, and it will only build on top of that, I won't see bare ground until April at the earliest
I'd rather be riding...
