Ok, it made it to 37 degrees yesterday,MOST of the ice melted...I repeat MOST! So, I in my overeagerness took the new scooter out for a chilly ride, all was well ,until I was turning a corner that had a mass of ice/slush/mud..going too fast into it...found the ice part ( of course) bike slid out from under me and bucked my stupid ass off INTO THE MUD AND SLUSH. Happily no major damage to the bike...bent the handlebars out of kilter a tad (other than it took on the appearance of a rolling mudball). me? some minor roadrash, possible busted thumb, and laughed my ass off ( my son,Stephen, thought I'd lost my mind, as usual I seldom ride without SOMEONE riding beside me.) Did that stop me?????NOPE! After assessing the minor setback, changing into clothes that WEREN'T mud caked, we took off for another short putt ( me being a lot more cautious THIS TIME!LOL) today, just pondering the question...... am I a TRUE BIKER, MENTAL CASE OR TOO DARING FOR MY OWN GOOD? Whatever, I'll be glad to see WARM temperatures and DRY STREETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! concluding thout...ICE fucking sucks!!!!!!!!!!!
