  • Stupid Snow

    As I gaze out in my yard I see 3 inches of snow on my garage roof. I look at the street and water is running down the curb as fast as if it were raining hard. Sometimes it sucks to be in Alberta and today is one of them days

        Yeah I have "had" to ride in snow before and although they tend to be very slow trips I did make it without problems. It is just this stupid weather we have been having lately, cold, windy, raining etc that gets a guy down. Why couldn't it have been a nice Saturday to take a ride.

          Sorry for your crazy weather!! Its 87 F and sunny here today. But then, I got nothing to ride.
          Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

          When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

            Yeah, ok, riding in the snow is no big deal, lets see you do a transmission repair, carb rebuild and general full maintenance out in that crud!

            Laying underneath to get the middle drive drain plug out was particularily icky.

            Not to mention the weather is putting a real damper on my motorcycle/holiday trailer sales!
            Nice day, if it doesn't rain...

              was particularily icky

              Clint Eastwood said it best in a movie he made
              (about Canadians )
              He's laid out flat on his back
              Cool blond over him asking him if he's OK
              And he replies "B!tch B!tch B!tch "
