Earache

Colorado is worse than California. I gotta move.

Ahhh ya pussy! I'm weird in that I get up around that time most days anyway - so it's not a bother for me. It's gotta be done before the school opens for the day though. Place has a shitload of steps as , like everything else here, it's on the side of the mountain ...

Got another 12" last night. Fun! I shovel the steps and decks on the house myself and a contractor does our driveway as it's about 160 feet long - too long to shovel by hand. They charge $80 per snow - not a flat rate. Last year, when it snowed 61" in a day, they charged double that amount as they had to bring in extra equipment to do it. Ends up costing anywhere from $2,500 to $3,500 per year usually. Looks cool, too.... In addition to that, I volunteer at our local school and shovel the steps and walkways there. It's kinda fun in a weird way. We get there at 0400 on snowy days and shovel for about 3 hours to get all of the steps done before school. It's good exercise, too.

12F / -11 C today with 13 inches of new white stuff so far and it's still coming down. I'll be out on the driveway if anyone needs me ....

Hello and welcome! Let me know if you're up for a lap around the USA someday - always wanted to do that. Ireland is great for riding - lovely place.

Sounds like you need to stay home in bed. But you'd end up wrapping a sheet around your head and suffocating....

That could have really hurt - glad you survived!

Yeah right - that Mama moose would have stomped you into a stain on the driveway.

Thought my bike was gonna get knocked over today....

Getting my drone out and going to the local football field to learn how to fly the damned thing. Had it for 2 years and have yet to fly it. I'll either have some cool video or a lightly used drone for sale by tomorrow night...

Stops faster that way and saves wear on the pads.

Weather has been great here lately, really odd that it's this warm at this time. Got out on the scooter and snapped a few pics of the local area. Not really worthy of a Ride Report though so here they are ....

Still, thats about $500 in cost. $1,700 is still a rip.

HBD!

$1,700.00 For one day bike rental and 2 nights lodging? If anyone wants to do this, I'll guide ya free of charge. Bike rental would be around $125 for one day.

In most areas, I don't care about riding at night. But in my home area, there's just too many animals out in the dark to safely ride the curves and hills in the county. Don't wanna hit a moose or elk on a bike as that'd hurt quite a bit. Hit a moose with my truck once and it really fucked the truck up - would have been fatal to me on a bike.

Lefty people in the US have lost their shit. Bit of a stretch methinks....

Last night's snow total. Didn't get squat and it's kinda grainy. Not quite hail but not flakey, either. . Too cloudy to see much at the higher elevations but heard they got some more . Riding season is at it's end soon....

Check them out here: https://www.shelbyamericancollection.org/ Has really cool displays with moulds used in the engine and parts casting process along with loads of cars. Never saw one running though.

I bought one of these a few years ago - huge time saver. Am amazed at how many times I've used it.

There;s a museum in town full of the real ones - all sorts of cool crap in there. I have some pics of it around here someplace. They have lots of tee shirts for sale - gimme your size and addresss in a PM and I'll get ya one.... edit: added some pics

Thank fuckin' Christ for that!

It's a fuckin' heat wave here today with heat warnings out =high of 66F / 18C.....

I had to look up "CBT" on the internet to see what it was. Won't be doing that again anytime soon. CBT: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=CBT
