Earache

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 ....

Nice pics! I've got to get back to Scotland for some riding someday.

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!

Looks like a perfect day. Nice post!

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...

Same peak as in your picture??

It's a cool area to ride, too. Not too many others around ...

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 ....

Had a set of Fox Air Shox on my RM back in the day. They were the hot set up at the time.

Been to Scotland 4-5 times and got rained on each and every time. Wish they could sort that out But it is some great riding though!

That's the big city compared to our town! Looks nice though!

Man, what a day my buddy had today. First, his wife goes to lunch at work and some illegal immigrant with no insurance barrels into the restaurant and damn near kills her. Meanwhile, he's out in his car and some douche clips the front of his car at an intersection. He should go home and get in bed....

Street in front of our house is in full color now...

Cottonwood Pass and the driveway this weekend - looks like winter is upon us.....

Yes - have done the professional Ironman race in Boulder for the past 3 years. On those, I have a professional referee on the bike with me as pillion. He does all of the yelling at people and I just ride the bike to his instructions. edit: here are some of the Super Tenere's they used at Ironman - built for TV camera guys to move around on. I didn't take a lot of pics at Ironman as I didn't really have the time - too busy being told what to do <gg>.

After the Monument, we slogged 250 miles on the highway to get home. Tired and cold, it's good to be home. Next weekend is the year's last Moto Mrashal gig - the Denver Century Ride.

The Monument never disappoints ...

Up at the crack of 9:00 AM the next day, (waiting on warmth again), and off to the coffee shop for all of the others while I watch the bikes in he parking lot. Then onto a speed alp of the Colorado National Monument ...
