essex rider Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 (edited) Ive been out happily doing donuts around the fields on the sherco. Its surprising how well it grips.

the addict Posted February 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Recon we have had about 6 inches of snow this morning, bike was a right handfull down the road, had a couple of big dabs on the way tyres just filled with ice instantly. Worked till 1.30 in the workshop untill I could nt feel my fingers anymore and had a coffee with me old mate Ralph. Spent the afternoon cleaning the carb and sticking new Boysens in . Looking like more snow this evening and minus 8 in the night which will make things interesting in the morning. Had to put off me and Dads Thursday ride up the dishes, first time in months we have nt been out hes like a caged lion today, dying to have another go on his new 4rt. Woman up our road has a 4x4 and when I got back it was abandoned in my driveway, turns out she did nt know it was a 4x4 and got stuck in 2 wheel drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bilco Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 That weather look's unbearable. bet you had some strange look's by people riding your bike down the street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted February 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Did nt see anyone this morning on the ride down or back, only live half mile from work and a back road anyway. Glad I did nt meet a car or I think I would have hit it or fell off, trials tyres and snow really dont mix on the road, may have to do the same tomorrow by the looks of things tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barcota Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 You guys have it easy. Fifty miles east of me they have had six feet of snow in the last week. That area is scheduled to get two more foot tonight. Lake effect snow can be be pretty hairy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
