Been raining a lot here too.  :icon_neutral:

But anything... ANYTHING is better than snow!
The bikes are worthless once the winter snows hit.

Do NOT ride anything over 250cc in the snow!  :cookoo:

That looks scary. I like the mk2 VW in the beginning though.
Be safe out there: if you want to go 120 mph get on the track or jump out of a plane.

Had fun racing the thing against it. The day i blew its engine, i outran a ford taurus. I changed gear ratios. Iirc was a 7/70. Previous it was a 7/94. Course the ford was occupied 4x, maybe 1200lbs of passengers. The ped with me on it maybe weighed 190lbs

In high school I rode a 1984 KDX200 in the snow with just knobbys and it was super hairy in the powerband. Got stuck on a hill though, I was walking beside it, full throttle pushing it up the hill with the rear tire just spinning the whole time. Couldn't stop very well, although I think the front/rear drums were an advantage at that point.

That's crazy shaZam! Yama... but I bet a whole lot of fun!  :thumb:

Now they're saying possible shower for tomorrow, most likely in the afternoon... I reckon I'll just pack the rain suit and see what happens  :cheers:
