COFSTA

I've driven the DRZ around town in somewhat cool temps lately and the nekid bike business is NO GOOD! Even moderately chilly wind feels like the great white north trying to blow me off the bike. Here's a picture of a windshield I ordered on someone else's bike. It might not look like it will do much but a windshield of the same size on my KLR makes all the difference.



Also, ordered boots. I don't think my Tour Masters will ever die but I need something more adventure-ish for the DRZ and weather. I settled on Forma Adventures. They're Italian and better known in Europe with a claim to fame of lateral stiffness for protection but fore and aft flexibility allowing one to do wandering around on foot.

We're supposed to get around 6" tonight. I wonder if I can strap my skis on the front tire ?

Everywhere up the road from me gets snow tonite. Might run the pickup truck (not motorcycle!) there tomorrow and check it out.

This has gotta be setting a record for the earliest snowfall in the mtns. around here.....

nope 2yrs ago mtns got nailed as sandy went up the east coast a friend and I rode up to to the entrance of Mt Mitchel 2 yrs ago today as a matter of fact and I took a picture of him standing in a waist deep snow drift. the storm came through not sure but I think it was the prior Monday.

Damn... Winter sucks! I moved here to get away from it!!! When ever I think it's bad here I contact one of my sisters or a friend in Ohio. Then I realize just how nice I have it here.
I just love hearing Y'all southerners talk about "going to see the snow"! You can have my share I've had my lifetimes worth!!!
